    Your activity level is for how much you move normally, not counting exercise. If you don't move much, set it to sedentary and add your exercise in separate.

    What I said still stands, that's how MFP is setup to be used.

    Then use a TDEE calculator instead and definitely don't use MFP to set your calorie goal.
