That's about 2000 Calories per day so about right but people generally
talk about the extra energy used during exercise compared to resting.
A good measure is that a fat bloke climbing a flight of stairs uses a

Of course it depends on how fat you are and the dimensions of your office
but it's good enough for your lunchtime exercise calculations.
