  • The Calories "From Normal Daily Activity" is your TDEE or Total Daily Energy Expenditure, which is derived from BMR times your daily activity. So if your BMR was 2000 and you reported your daily activity to MFP as Sedentary (1.25) than your TDEE or Calories "From Normal Daily Activity" would be 2500 (ie. 2000 x 1.25).

  • Just keep in mind that those limits shown are for "added sugars." Those found in fruits and vegetables are natural and therefore are not considered part of the sugar limit you see in myfitnesspal.
