Waitressing

Just wondering how many calories waitressing burns? I am a server at the Red Lobster and I typically work 6 hour shifts where I am constantly walking and carrying trays, usually doing all of this fairly quickly on the weekend shifts. Is this exercise I need to log or does MFP already account for these calories as regular daily calories? Thanks!

    You will certainly be burning calories doing a busy job like that.
    The simplest way to account for it is to change your activity level setting to include your job. Then you don't need to log it separately, it is already accounted for.
