According to mfp I can eat 1600 cals to lose being active ( I walk at least 15000 ) steps a
Day so I put my activity level at active. I also exercise on top of that ? So it adds 400 to that number. Should I maybe set activity level to sedentary and just add exercise calories ? Seems like a lot of food to lose weight lol.

    If you are really taking 15,000 steps a day I think active is appropriate as is 1600 without knowing your stats. Just don't use those steps as exercise or eat them back. Additional exercise can be logged and eaten back if you want to, I suggest eating back or logging 50%
