    I would put it as slightly active and then record your exercise calories separately. If you already factor your exercise into your activity levels you can't really add it on aswell? Hope that makes sense x

    I agree too. Activity level is about your general lifestyle. Exercise is undertaking a specific workout.

    I think the active or slightly active should be based on you normal daily activities besides exercise. Does your job require lots of moving around, or do you sit on a desk. Do you clean your house everyday, or a couple times a week. Do you chase your kids around? Stuff like that.

    I also agree! Exercise should be logged separate... the rest should be your normal everyday activities... work, babysitting, housecleaning, shopping, etc. etc....
