I am a home body so going out and shopping is not part of my usual routine. When I spend an hour or more walking while shopping should I log this as exercise. I log every calorie that even lands near my mouth , so I was wondering would it the "cheating " or over stating if I count this.

    I would log it. This thing isn't an exact science so I wouldn't stress about cheating.

    If it's not part of your normal routine, I would log it.
