So the choices seem to be to choose wisely between mainly determined paths. When we are conscious of evolution then we may see the choice between evolution and devolution. We are born with both devolutionary and evolutionary attributes, as Tomotom Siftung pointed out, and the environment can reinforce either of these. The Evolutionary Christian Church says we need to reinforce the evolutionary attributes because this is the Path to Godhood. The goal is determined but the paths to the goal are mainly undetermined.

How much freedom do we have?
We seem to be free to decide between some of the various causes of our bodies and the environment. This is what consciousness does, it can reflect on decisions we make, the less consciousness the less reflection. This is a kind of freedom but since our bodies and the environment are determined causes of this freedom it seems to be a limited freedom.
