Calories Burned Waitressing

I've been trying to figure out how many calories I burn while I wait tables. I looked it up online, and the estimates seem high (like 6 calories per minute for someone who weighs 200 lbs). Any suggestions?

Get yourself a pedometer! Here is the one I use;

With all the walking you are doing while waitressing Im sure you are taking ALOT of steps. Studies show that everyone should try and reach 10,000 steps a day, which I thought would be pretty easy but since I sit at a desk from 9-5 its difficult for me. I am curious how many you take. The pedometer actually shows you calories burned and fat grams lost. Definitly look into it and keep us updated on what you find out!
