That is pretty normal, at least for me. I also don't like running especially if it is on a machine (it is like trying to swim in a bathtub). But, if you really want to burn some calories, or do some cardio, by walking, your only option would be doing it when the machine has the maximum incline (I guess, 15 degrees is the max). You can easily burn 450-500 calories if you walk at quick pace in maximum incline mode, after exercising for half an hour. And, you can think of this exercise as not just burning calories but also building basic muscles. So, if you can do this 6 times a week, in 1-hour training periods, you are bound to get pretty good results, even if you don't pay too much attention to your diet. Diet after all is a subjective argument.
