Last Week's Results Weekly fitbit results: Week 3 results: Slowing down Other random fitbit stats to spur some more mileage out of me: Other aerobic activities: Knockout Body (20 min.) Leslie Sansone's Walk Away Your Waistline (15 min.) Rockin' Body (46 min.) Jane Fonda's Abs, Buns, and Thighs (50 min.) By golly, this rain business needs to go away.
