What exercise to log?
So, I am a teacher, so I am on my feet most of the day walking around the room. Do I log that as exercise, or only activities in which I am actively "exercising", ie. doing Turbofire or P90x.

I get all excited for a couple of weeks, hit my exercises really hard, dial in my diet and stay under my calories, and then something happens.
