Burning calories while standing?

I work at the front desk of a hotel so I am basically standing about 8 hours a day with a little bit of walking around. Anyone know how to figure out how many calories this actually burns? When I log my exercise for the day, I enter "walking, 2.0 mph" with a time of 60 minutes and about 200 calories burned. I know just standing there isn't exactly exercise, but I feel like it should count for something since it's better than sitting, right? Thanks!

In your profile you could set your activity as light. It say's if you are on your feet most of the day you are not sedentary you are light activity. I don't think it counts as exercise though.0
