How do you know what level to set it at? I have mine set for sedentary but not sure if that is most accurate. I want to make sure it is set right so that I am getting the right amount of calories since I know too much will cause gain but too little will cause issues as well. I was not working out at all when I first started MFP and now working out 4-6 days a week.

    Even though you're working out quite a bit its more of what you're doing during the day as well. If have an office job you may want to keep it with sedentary. However feel free to play with the calories differences in those areas to see what would work best for you. If you put yourself in a different category you may end up with too many calories. So something to mess around with to see what fits your comfort level and what your goals are :)
    Hope that helps
