Activity level help?

Hi, I'm not sure where I should be in terms of my activity level for MFP's goals. I'm a stay-at-home mom, so when I'm home I do housework but also do sit (yes, it happens!), and I do a lot of driving around, grocery shopping, etc. I wouldn't say I'm usually on my feet, but I don't sit at a desk all day either.

    I'm also a SAHM and I do sit plenty but I'm also on my feet plenty, cleaning, chasing my toddler around, etc etc. I have my settings set to sedentary though and just log all my workouts.

    I am a Financial Analyst (desk job of course), but I am constantly walking to meetings, printing tons of reports (individually so I walk more) and I park the last spot across the parking garage on purpose... And I still chose sedentary. HOWEVER, because of my age and height, even lightly active was the same 1200 calories!!! :blushing:

    I think if you are unsure then set it at Sedentary then just log when you clean/walk!
