So for the past year I have not had a job. And I just got a full time job as a cashier at a grocery store, and will be standing all day, I currently have my activity level set at sedentary because all I do is sit all day. I have a fitbit. And I get about 2 to 5k steps per day. Should I change it to lightly active? Or how to I tell.

    If your FitBit is synced and changing your calories based on activity, it shouldn't matter what your activity level is set at here.

    Do you have your fitbit synced to mfp?
