I'm ready to fly.

Hi!
Andréa. Seventeen. Chicago.
Overweight. Currently changing that. :)

I'm using this blog to document my quest to get in shape and ultimately run a marathon. It'll also help me when I need some motivation. I'm just trying to be the best that I can be. Healthy, fit and happy.

I'm 5'9".
SW: 240 (7/1/11)
CW: 221 (1/28/12)
GW1: Under 200 lbs by 2/29/12

Half Marathon Training / Running Goals:
- February: 3 mi
- March: 6 mi
- April: 9 mi
- May: 12 mi
- June: 15 mi

Why am I doing this?
Because the person I know I am, is not what I see in the mirror. I love myself and I love my body, but I know I can be so much better. And no matter what size my body is, I will always love it.
This is my chance to finally finish what I've started.

Spinach Burgers

These are the absolute best! I am making them again tonight!

Makes about 4

1 bag of thawed and well drained chopped spinach

2 egg whites

1 whole egg

1/4 c diced onion

1/2 c shredded cheese

1/2 c bread crumbs

1 tsp red pepper flakes

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Mix well in a bowl 

Now, form into burger-sized patties. (or you can do spinach balls)

Heat a non stick skillet over med-high. Spray with a bit of cooking spray.

Cook about 5-6 minutes. 

Serve on your choice of bread product, or eat them “naked”.

This looks absolutely amazing.
