Being fairly sedentary apart from workouts, I like diarizing those workouts with entries and notes instead of a separate logger to remember them. Thanks to the two of you for clearing it up. You only log what ISN'T accounted for already in your activity level. If you include it in your activity level and then log it and get additional calories, you are double dipping. You then log exercise after the fact because it is NOT included in your activity level. MFP is designed for your activity level to be your day to day humdrum.like sitting in an office most of the day would be sedentary.

If you include your exercise in 'light active' activity level, you wouldn't log it separately. Taking all these calculatons as pretty rough and ready, and pretty satisfied so far, I am unclear about it. Pretty new to MFP, it appears defining activity level sets a baseline calorie intake (mine's set Lightly Active) but then entering any substantial exercise in the Diary manually adds more food even if those manual workouts seem to fit within that basic Lightly Active and the target activity goal set.
