Calculating Calories Burnt for when I Work

Anyone have any advice on how to calculate what calories I burn at work? I work at McDonalds, and I can never make a decision on how to add up the hours I spend on my feet working.

    I'd suggest an easier way would be to change your MFP settings to lightly active rather than sedentary. (Or you could try something like FitBit - I've never used one but some folks around here seem to think highly of them)

    I would change your activity levels - people with desk jobs are at "sedentary", but it sounds like you're not. It's probably easier to do that than to calculate your work as exercise.
