You will burn about 250 calories doing 5 km at 6kmph speed. But exercise may contribute to about 30% of your weight loss effort. Rest 70% will come from your diet management. You need to follow a 1600 calories diet per day. That can give you a weight loss of 2 kgs a month. You would be fully fit another 10 months at this rate. If you do faster walk/Jog you can even lose more. All the best.
