If I'm a SAHM, and have two children at home, what should my activity level be on my profile when trying to configure my calorie consumption??

    IMO that would depend. What do y'all do during the day? Do you sit and watch cartoons or are you cleaning, playing tag, dancing around, etc?

    I used to do home day care and would vacuum & mop the house every morning before I opened. Between doing this and getting my own four kids up and off to school, I would usually log almost 10,000 steps before 10am. That was when we usually started a movement activity, whether it be outside to the playground (& yes, I'm just as big of a kid as the kids) or dancing around the living room like crazy little people!

    I say I probably spend a good amount of time NOT sitting down lol.so I guess it should be lightly active? Haha we do some dancing as well. Thanks for the response!
