I am guessing you know this, but just in case one meal a day causes your body to slow its own metabolism down because of historical genetic programming. So you will absorb and store more of those calories. Eathing 5 to 6 very small portions spread out over the entire day that amount to the same amount of calories will be much more effective losing weight. Small amounts of deserts weekly that keep you calorie count for the day similar will not hurt your weight loss efforts unless you are diabetic. 6 glasses of water is good 8 is much better and recommended they should be well placed across the day. The walks are indeed a very effective aid in your weight loss.
Best of luck, don't punish yourself and use moderation. Truth is small portionns several times a day along with exercise is far better for you. One killer is sodas, concentrated sugars (likely used instead of water is weight gain just waiting to pounce right into fat cells because the virtually contain no nutritional value at all.
Best of luck as I said before, you can do it. For a number of factors I have went from 280 back in1994 to 180 last Thursday at the doctors office. Part of it has been health problems (not recommended) but changes in eating habits account for the rest. I still eat what I want just reasonable amounts with lots of Iced Tea with Nutrasweet and Diet 7up when I am not drinking water.
Hope this encourages you.
