My Health 
i go to snap fitness for about hour and a half each day..sometimes every other day.
first day-first i jog/walk 2 miles about 30 min if im walking most of it..
..then do the stairstepper for about 20 minutes
…then i do the leg exercises with the machines 2 diff machines..2 sets of 10
..then i do a line of the arm machines that work each part..2 sets of 10 for each machine..like 4 machines..
..then i do some ab stuff and calf lifts.
2nd day..i dont do as much..resting the muscle groups.
i still do the jog/walk 2 miles..but i do the programs that incline and pick up the speed..so it burns more..
then 20 minutes on the stair climber.
i have a habit of eaching chips and stuff..would i still lose weight even if i ate SOME chips more than twice a week.. im not using all my daily calories either..
i burn about 400 alone in the gym..i dont think its that much..
ive lost 5 pounds but im wondering if i exercise ill lose weight no matter what? as long as im not eating real bad.

IF you exercise every day – even just walking on the days you don’t go to the gym – and you eat mostly fruits and vegis and protein, then eating some chips or other junk food 2 times a week or so will not matter. If you eat mostly junk and exercise the same, you will loose some weight, but not as much or as fast.
Despite common opinions that chips are bad for you, they actually aren’t. The average serving of Potato Chips does have a lot of fat, but the BAD FAT within it (Saturated fat, is only like 1.5g per serving), where as the rest of the fat is GOOD FATS (Mono unsaturated and Polyunsaturated) Although they ARE PROCESSED so try to avoid eating too much.
As far as the Gym goes, I’d say on the off days, you can still go to the gym, but don’t do too much work. Muscles help burn off excess fat, but they also need rest. It seems like you’re doing good, from what I can tell though it sounds like you’re saying that you’re working hard, but occasionally snacking on somewhat healthy/non-healthy snacks like chips?
Basic Advice:
1.) Water and Juice should be your only beverages
2.) Limit BAD SUGARS (For Example, raisins have a TON of sugar, I think somewhat around 24g per serving, but it’s good sugar! 24g from Candy would be bad)
3.) Fruits are good and healthy, but try to eat more vegetables than fruits, as an excess of fruit will cause you to retain some fats (due to Carbohydrates)
