You can lose weight by using a treadmill, providing you exercise several times throughout the week. This translates to five 30-minute exercise sessions each week if your are aiming for a total of 150 weekly minutes.
The idea behind avoiding cardio like jogging on a treadmill is because it has little to no effect on fat loss. If you enjoy doing all of these activities, try doing one or two days of interval sprints, one or two days of an extended low level walk, and one or two days of a 2-4 mile run. If you hate all of them, sprints will give you the most bang for your buck. This is what I do.
