Step Scult Class - The Evil Empire Strikes

So, like, if I don't do anything, did I still burn calories?
Today, I had to work and sat at a desk (however, I had to walk from one end of the school to the other, which is very big)...I work at a high school. I have a chest cold, so I don't feel like exercising (I have a bad chest cold). Do I post anything?

Difference in calories burned on websites
I was checking how many calories I burn on my bike rides, and I noticed that there is a difference in the amount depending on what website I checked. MFP tends to be on the low side it seems, sometimes differing as much as 150 calories from other sites. Is there a reason? I'm still keeping up riding an hour a day and…
