What would you do?

Options
I have a question. I am working at McDonald's (my part-time job) tonight and I will be on my feet walking/standing for about 6.5 hours. Should I count that as exercise or just leave it alone. I only work there about 3 or 4 days a week.

What would you do? Count it as exercise or not.

Thanks,

    I wouldn't count it. It is probably already counted in your daily activity, depending on what you set it as. =)

    When you entered your goals did you put your daily activity as active. It says if you are a waitress you have an active lifestyle. If you did put active in your goals it would be automatically set for that lifestyle. So you would not add anything else.

    Sure but are you going to be eating there though.:S if you want to make it a calorie burn do some butt flexes, calf ups and other stuff that doesnt look like you are working out but are. :)

    I use too. I have a plan tonight to eat my 6 inch turkey sub from Subway. If I do eat there I have been getting a Bacon Ranch Salad.

    When I signed up here I marked it as sendentary/desk job because that is what I do during the day for 5 days a week and 40 hours. McDonald's is my part-time job.

    Depends on what your activity level is set to. If you have it set to incorporate the fact that you work on your feet part time, No. Since you work there part time, I would change it to lightly active or moderately active.
