I am just going over my settings and I'm wondering if I have this part filled out correctly. I am a waitress Tuesday and Friday nights form 5-11 and Saturday 2-11, Sunday 12-10. I am off Mon, Wed, and Thurs. I clean the house everyday and take care of my daughter. Is that active or lightly active?

    I'd go with active. I used to have my set on lightly but I burn more calories than I realize just cleaning and chasing the kids around.

    I'd say active. You have an active job where you are on your feet and busy at work and then you get home and stay active and on your feet for your home and family. You burn way more calories than I do, that's for sure!
