A single soft shell crab is also high in cholesterol at 79 mg per serving or around 26 percent of the daily recommended intake of cholesterol. According to the American Heart Association, dietary cholesterol intake should be limited to 300 mg per day for the average adult.
However, walking is an excellent long-term weight-loss exercise. You can easily walk thousands of miles over decades, because walking has a very low injury risk. How many calories you burn on a one-mile walk depends on your speed and weight.
A 200-pound person burns about one-third more calories than a 150-pound person.) So a brisk walk, covering three-and-a-half miles in an hour, burns about 280 calories. When repeated each day, this excellent habit burns about 3,900 calories -- more than a pound of fat -- every 2 weeks. This rate of weight loss is a far cry from the pound-a-day claims of the crash diets.
