I work in retail and am on my feet from 8am until 6:30pm 5-6 days a week.

I would say lightly active only because retail isn't strenuous and for some periods you may be standing still. I work sales and this is what I have down,when I worked in kitchens I had it down as active/highly active.
Hope this helps ☺️0 -
Better to underestimate and put lightly active. If you have a Fitbit or similar put inactive then add in the calories from your fitness monitor- that's what I do as I'm on my feet at work but only pottering about (not sweating or carrying much).0

Try lightly active, monitor your results, and adjust as needed (i.e., if losing too fast, increase your activity level setting, eat more of your exercise calories, or manually adjust your calorie goal; if losing too slowly, reduce your activity level setting, eat fewer of your exercise calories, manually adjust your calorie goal, or tighten up your logging).0

Always error on the side of caution. Lightly active would be my guess but see how fast you lose weight and reassess.0
