Okay, so I just started my new job today (Yay!) and was on my feet, literally non-stop from 6am to 4pm. I'm a cashier/coffee maker, would it be cheating if i logged that under exorcise?

    Same answer I just gave. :) It's not a workout/exercise if it's part of your normal daily expenditure. You should have your MFP settings configured appropriately to your regular activity levels. So you'll want to have your settings as Active.

    Just change your activity level to lightly active.

    Another question, I only work 2 days a week, so would it be ok to just log the days i work as standing: fishing, because it feels exactly the same, just not with the worms. I don't want to change my activity level because If I see I can eat 1600 calories, I will most of the time >.< it's my flaw.
