Is your daily job included already?? Like when you fill out your goals and put in the job you have (nurse for me) do you count the calories from walking around all day...or have they are ready been calculated for you? Thanks!! :smile:

    your job should guide you to pick from the sedentary-lightly-moderately-very-active list. then your "exercise" calories come just from workouts, rather than from your daily activities.

    If you entered in your profile the right activity level for yourself then yes, your calories allowed has already taken that activity into account.
