Question about Calories burned

I am curious about how many calories I can burn while wearing ankle weights to work. I mostly sit at a computer. I know that it is not recommended but I don't do anything extreme and I would take them off if I felt like they are hurting my legs. I just want to know how many calories I burn while working an 8 hour day.

Thanks,
Kim

    I'm pretty sure that wearing ankle weights while sitting isn't going to add any extra burn.

    if you can get a exercise ball....even if its for a little it will keep you upright and make ur back and core work to keep you in place. if you add weights maybe do some leg lifts while sitting or put them in your hands make a X across your chest and do squats into your chair?
