What's the soonest you can eat after waking up?

I wake up at 5am and eat breakfast by 5:15am (unless I'm doing a pre-eating long ride or run).

Q: What's the soonest you can eat after waking up?

A: Whenever you're hungry.

I usually wake up hungry, so no more than two hours. If I don't eat, I get nauseated. And I absolutely have to have my morning coffee first thing.

I have heard of people who can eat and drink in their sleep.....

I’ve never been able to eat right after I wake up. I start my day with black coffee. I get hungry depending on my activity. If I’ve worked out that morning or if the day before I ran I usually get hungry around 11-12, other days not until 2ish.

My daughter used to get up in the middle of the night and eat and not remember it. She would find half empty yogurt cups or a box of crackers in her bed in the morning.

I'm not interested in eating in the morning until after "nature calls." I'm always ravenous after a bowel movement, so have a smoothie or something ready to go for after that happens.

I tend to have nausea in the morning and usually don't eat until about 4 hours or so after I wake up. During my work week, I usually eat all my food between 12 pm and 8 pm and repeat. I don't like eating late because then I can't sleep, and 12 is just when I get to work, so no reason for the window other than convenience.

On my weekends I usually eat a little earlier because my husband is usually hungry within a couple hours so I figure I may as well eat, too.

I'm doing the 16:8 IF and skip breakfast so the bulk of my calories are consumed between 10a and before 6p. That works for me and reduces my temptation to snack late at night.
