Weight loss pt. 2

Every day when I weigh myself lately, the scale is reporting a lower number. Here is a summary of changes I've made over the past week or so:

1. Walk throughout the day (before breakfast, after lunch, and after dinner - especially if I've eaten carbs). My goal is to hit 10,000 steps, and I usually make it.
2. No carbs after 8 pm. 
3. Hit the gym 3 times per week. 
4. Cut back on calories. Cut out the little things that add up like butter and cream. 
5. Eat more healthy fats. I probably eat at least half an avocado per day. 
6. Drink lots of water (minimum of 8 glasses but up to 15 especially if I hit the gym). 
7. Get at least 7 hours of sleep per night.

My jawbone up and my fitness pal are both really helping me stay on top of these things.
