NO on the crackers and PB, and the wheat tortillias are ok, and your cardio needs to be a little more intense the stair stepper is good but use the eliptical trainer as well, walking on a tread mill never did it for me and running is just to hard on the knees/shins,

If Ritz were good while cutting, I'd be eating the two boxes we have here. Ritz Stix and the rectangle ones too, shit, we should own stock! My son eats them...

I'm not sure anyone could give you an = number for level since each machine is going to be different, if even only slightly.

I think what you may want to look at is Heart Rate. Check your resting HR (mine is 60 Bpm) and use the following to as a guide:
Low - High Bpm
Light 40-52% (110 - 124)
Easy 52-64% (124 - 139)
Aerobic 64 - 76% (140 - 154)
Anerobic 76 - 88% (155 - 169)
Vo2Max 88 - 100% (169 - 184)

For maximum fat burn is said to be somewhere between 68-79.

Hope this is helpful info.. Good Luck!
