Not really new, first time socializing

I have been on and off with my fitness goals for awhile, trying to stay motivated now to keep at it all the time. I was also wondering if that calorie goal that is set by myfitness pal, is that with no exercise or including exerciser?

Welcome.
I've only been here since like... June and haven't socialized either, but I've already made some friends and you will too!
I'm not sure about the calorie goal thing (never gave it thought since I customize my own macros), but it appears that they have calculated their values using "Normal Daily Activity" - so maybe actual sedentary activity level would be a more accurate description.
Hopefully, this reply of mine bumps this and someone else who truly knows might give you a definitive answer.0 -
