    A question in return - will she be logging her activities/calories and eating back those calories? If so, then we'd probably need to know what her activity level is outside of her workouts. I don't include my workouts in determining my activity level because I log those separately. YMMV, of course. :wink:

    Thank you for the reply. Well, she has been logging in her calories and eating back the calories to get to her suggested level of 1200. She is 29 years old, 5'10" and 164lbs with a goal weight of 140lbs. Do you think she should just set her active level to sedentary and log her workouts? Or set her activity level according to her exercises and not log in her exercises?

    Register as sedentary and then add in the activities.
