    I log 100 calories burnt for each mile I walk @ 4+mph. (14 minute miles, walking) This is silly.

    Hmmm if yo walk to the store with a backpack and two grocery bags you are easily carrying over a stone in weight. If walking with that kind of weight and walking 1/2 a mile I bet the calories burned are moderately high

    Well it is Halloween weekend...

    I'm always curious how these things get resurrected. Did the poster above search "calorie burn grocery shopping"? How come people can't use the search feature to find the daily/weekly threads on exercise calories and cheat meals yet somehow these threads bubble up out of the graveyard every so often...

    Why would you count these calories? It couldn't be more than a couple of hundred. It is part of your daily lifestyle/activity level. I just consider such things as "bonus burn" to offset possible logging or estimating errors. I wear a Fit bit, so the the steps are counted automatically.
