How to go beyond losing 3 lbs a month ?

[amind]

Now that it is summer, I prefer the trails over going to the gym.

I walk about 5.5 miles in 90 mins. I do this 6 days a week. I love the trails and prefer this to being in the gym during summer.

I tracked progress through June 2013. I lost 3 lbs over the entire month. I had walked the entire month except on days when
it rained. For all the rain days lost and rest days, I walked a total of 100 miles through the entire month and lost 3lbs. I could say
only 3lbs , but its still some loss

-what should I do to increase the amount of weight loss per month while I am out on the trail ?

-currently I am brisk walking, would running make a bigger difference in the weight loss ?

-any other suggestions while I plan to continue on the trail through summer

- weight last year : 230
weight end of May 2013: 217
weight end of June 2013: 214
goal : to break 190 lbs before end of this year

-I am on a good diet of protein, some carb and lots of veggies.

Running would be more beneficial yes, because to use an analogy if you drive faster you use more fuel, so if you run or jog as opposed to brisk walking, based on travelling the same distance, then you should use more fat because you should be able to tap into the fat reserves more, if you're creating more thermogenesis.

cardio and running are great ways to lose weight quickly, be sure to compliment it with weight training to keep it off. Lean muscle eats up fat.
