Hi!
I was at a convention today attending conferences and I stayed on my feet (not moving a lot) for more than 4 hours. My legs are killing me tonight. Anyone knows how many calories for staying on your feet for a long period?
:ohwell:

    About as many as sitting in a chair for a long period of time, only with more tired legs.

    Unfortunately, fatigue is often not a good indicator of effort. And standing around requires almost no effort at all.

    Yeah, it can be tiring, but I actually burn more sitting at my desk all day than when I'm standing a lot.
