So, are you on FitBit? What do you mean what's FitBit? (Don't worry. We didn't know either.)
FitBit is, as the name suggests, a neat little calorie tracker (that costs a hundred freakin' bucks!) you can wear all the time (and sync to your computer!) that will keep track of how your activities affect your fitness. They have an online community similar to MyFitnessPal or Spark People. And if you wear FitBit all day, it tracks calories burned during every daily activity. Even while you sleep. Or have sex.
What? Sex is, after all, exercise. Just check out this great (if estimated) list of calorie-burning sexual activities from Woman's Day. Even oral sex helps you lose weight, coming in at a whopping 100 calories per half hour! Would it be uncouth for us to say "So, get sucking!" here?
In any case, it's not just the sex stats we're reporting on here, but the fact that they were leaked to Google. Apparently, FitBit's privacy settings are every bit as difficult to figure out as every other social networking site, and some time this weekend everyone's sex stats were made public. Things like "Sexual Activity: Light, passionate kissing - 10 minutes" and "Sexual Activity: Active, vigorous effort - 15 minutes."
Naturally, people were mortified, and FitBit got in there and fixed it as quickly as possible. So you're gonna have to find other ways to glean the sex habits of your fitness pal.
