I have a desk job and have set my activity level at Sedentary.



Just a reminder: MFP's choices are: Sedentary: Lightly Active: Active: Very Active:

    I run my own online store from home, so I've set mine to sedentary, as I spend a lot of time at my pc. I'm working on gathering the will power to take the time out once a day to use the ton of fitness equipment I have in the next room so that I can upgrade to moderately active :laugh:

    I'm a psych tech, I keep it at sedentary even though every 15 minutes I get up to do rounds. I was considering lightly active but I don't work every day.
