Pedometer lies

I received my pedometer in the mail today.  If you read my previous post, you will know that this pedometer is something the company I work for is providing.  It keeps track of our steps throughout the day and we download it to a website where we can earn points.  I put my pedometer on as soon as I opened to see how active I am at home.  Looking at it right now, it says 3001 steps.  That is since 5:00 and it's now 8:00.  I think that I might be able to hit the required 7000 a day.  Although I heard someone earlier say it over counts your steps. So it lies a little bit, but in my favor.  I'm OK with that.
To be fair I did do Insanity wearing the pedometer.  Honestly I'm a little disappointed.  I thought with all the running and jumping it'd be a little higher.  Insanity is still making me sweat. Actually I think the sweating is getting worse.  But I feel like I'm actually doing something.  It feels good to me to be exhausted when I'm done with my work out.
I've realized that working out at night seems to be the better option for me.  Early last year I was getting up at 5:00AM to work out and it was tough.  I would do it maybe three times a week.  With this I am working out five times a week.  I don't think I have ever worked out that much before.  If I don't see results by the end of January, I'm gonna be pissed.
Food has gone better the past two days.  I went grocery shopping on Sunday and bought chicken and some turkey sausage.  I bought the Perdue chicken that comes with five chicken breasts individually wrapped.  I bought two bags (Kroger had a sale for $5.99) and stuck them in the freezer.  That way I can take out one piece of chicken to thaw in the morning and have it for dinner that night, without wasting a whole package of chicken.  I also bought some vegetables for dinner and some to snack on.  I'm going for convenience and found these packages of baby carrots that are separated into serving size bags.  They have apples like that too (pre-cut and rinsed with something that keeps them from browning).   If I have snacks ready to go and in a size that I can just grab, then I'm more likely to make the better choice.  I'm trying to lose weight and be healthy, but I'm still a little lazy.
I'm going to keep this up.  I've heard that having a specific goal helps in the weight loss, but I don't have one.  I want to be healthier and skinnier, but I don't know what size or weight.  I don't know what I'll look like at  any particular size or weight.  My body is different than it was when I was 20, so I don't think that it will look the same if I get back to a size 6.  I hope that I'll know I've reached my goal when I'm happy with what I see in the mirror.
