What's my activity level?

I'm unsure what my activity level is (sedentary, lightly active and so on...), perhaps someone could help? :)

I aim for 10.000 steps a day, which I usually reach (sometimes it's 8000 or 9000). I get those from walking the dog mostly (two times a day). Other than that, I have a standing desk at home. I'm a student, so I at school I spend a large part of the day on my behind. I work one a day a week as a cashier.

So, what do you think? :smile:

    Are you using a Fitbit or similar to link to MFP? If so, put it to sedentary and let the device handle it. If not, then you are lightly active I think.

    Nope, no fitbit! I'd like to get one though!

    I'd think you spend most of your time on your feet, so "like a teacher" as MFP suggests. I'm a stay at home mom so that's what I put. Seems about accurate.
