Hello I work as a cleaner. But I am a substitute. Some times its 3 hours a week, but now its several hours a day. I usually do 30 day shred aswell every day (except last couple of days) I also have to walk to work. To work and back is atleast (for me)an hour walk
Am I lightly active or active??

Weight loss takes a whole lot of trial & error to find what works for you. Try active for two weeks, then reevaluate.

Also, exercise has nothing to do with activity level. Log it, and eat back at least half your exercise calories.

and I say try lightly active and if you are ok on those calories go for it.

If you're on your feet a lot, that's considered active.

I was wondering the same thing.

I am a support worker and work long days x3 a week.
Sometimes at work I am more active than other days (some days I can be out and about but other days Im just sitting around watching TV) and there is no set way to how active I can be.When I am on days off I will admit I am lazy and tend to do nothing apart from chill and watch TV.Some days I exercise when I am off but this is never set and varies.

Due to the varying level of my activity at work and lack of doing things when off I have set mines at Light activity instead of active.

Does this sound about right??
