Yesterday I received a phone call from the surgeons office to set up an appt.. i called back this morning to find out what the appt was for and when i could get in - the nurse said that itwould be for my first consultation .. She said that BCBS/IL does cover 80% of my surgery and the consult would be to go over my general health and to discuss whtat BCBS/IL would need me to do in order to cover the cost of the surgery. I couldn't get in to see the surgeon until 02/25/09- that is about 1 month from now, so until then, i will be waiting to hear more. I guess I am on my way and i know there is still a very long way to go!:cheatfree:

      Xbox And Exercise - Kickboxing

      By sharon232 · Posted

      I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
