Can I lose weight by walking 10,000 steps per day?

Is walking 10,000 steps a day a good way to lose weight? I'm really hoping it is! I've been thinking about it, and hitting that 10,000 mark feels like it could actually work. Imagine, burning up to 5000 calories a week?! That's... what? Maybe like a pound and a half of weight loss? That would be amazing! I know, I know, it's not some magic wand, poof, you're skinny. I get that. Like, obviously where I'm starting from weight-wise matters. And how fast I walk – am I just strolling or really getting my heart rate up? That makes a difference too, right? But still… it feels doable, you know? It’s not like some crazy restrictive diet. Just walking. Like, the other day, I walked to the grocery store instead of driving, and I already racked up like 3000 steps! It's those little things that add up. It feels… hopeful. I really want this to work.
