    You wouldnt really log that cause you set your level of activity when you start the account. Double check to see if its set to the right setting for you.

    While I dont have all the answers, I used to teach gym and was on my feet all day long. I got a pedometer to keep track of how many steps I was taking then I converted them into how many calories I burned. This website has a good calculator that you could use if you chose to try it.

    If not this, I hope someone has some good answers for you! :)
