7:00- "grumble grumble". Run downstairs, put the coffee machine on (pre-measured the night before), take oatmeal out, put it in the microwave (pre-measured the night before).
Go to the bathroom to brush teeth/wash face/etc.
7:10- put clothes on (laid out the night before), eat breakfast, drink coffee
7:20- do hair, make-up, kiss husband
7:30- out the door; my work is a 5 minute walk from my door, so I try to be there by 7:35
I only work 2-4 days a week- when I'm not working, it's snooze snooze snooze till husband comes up to kiss me goodbye, then I usually get up, put laundry on, eat breakfast, and go on MFP.
You're an inspiration, I should be more active in the morning, but my husband is a night-owl, so we haven't figured out a schedule that works for both of us yet!0 -

Well, it all depends....school days I get up at 5:30 am so that I can actually drink my coffee while its still hot. Watch the news so that I can stay in touch with the outside world. 6:30 am I try to wake 2 out of the 3 kids. 7am I start my mean mommy voice in order for them to actually get up. I then make breakfast and lay out their clothes. 7:15 I wake the 3rd monster. 7:30 I hound them to hurry up , the bus doesnt work on their schedule! LOL! Remind them at least 3 times to go wash up and brush their teeth. 7:45 put the 3 year old on the bus for preschool. 8 am i send the other 2 out the door. Take a deep breath and have a second cup of luke warm coffee. Then I start all the other fun things like laundry and cleaning.
If this isnt birth control for some, then i dont know what is!! LOL!0 -

I always seem to be confused about the fact that time doesn't *actually* pause when I hit snooze. Every morning.
Haha, once or twice I have been confused on the day. Got up quickly cuz I thought I slept in and was gonna be late for work, only to realize it was sunday0 -

well thank you, I just started trying this "get up a bit early and get a bit active right away" thing not too long ago. Seems to be working out alright so far0 -
Around 5-5:30 am, I am proud to say that I walk 5,000 steps every morning since the middle of April. Then I try to end the night with another 5,000. My goal would be to start jogging in the morning. I just need to get over the fear of people laughing at me.0

for me it depends on the day and who wakes up first, my wife or my kids. If i can i hit snooze until i have no choice but to get up or be beaten by my wife because she hates my alarm. On day work it's a different story. I get up around 6am, pack my back pack, hop on my bike and ride the 3 miles up hill to my work.0

Spend an hour kicking my husband and trying to wake him up to no avail. Then a shake or some fruit accompanied by cereal.0

My morning ritual is a nutritious breakfast. I tend to hate life in general if I can't get a good breakfast in before starting the day. It is just as important to me as taking a shower or brushing my teeth. I'd rather show up to work dirty than hungry.
Usually it's oatmeal with fruit, nuts and a dollop of vanilla greek yogurt on top. Sometimes though, I'll switch it up and have eggs instead, but usually the oatmeal wins. It is easy to digest. I also try to find some sort of caffeine, and then jump in the shower, get dressed and put some makeup on.
I used to workout before work, but now I am working an earlier shift, so I just try to schedule a few workouts with friends in the evenings.0 -
Hit snooze about 5 times, then wake in a dead panic because the last time I thought I had hit snooze, I actually had completely turned off my alarm. Then proceed to run around like a madwoman trying to get ready for work!0

Wake up at 5:30 to Alarm set on my tablet cuz i broke the alarm clock throwing it, need the table so no throwing!
Crawl out of bed, try not to step on my 3 yr old that comes in my room in the middle of the night and has her sleeping bad right where I step out of bed.
Grab phone.
Stumble to the bathroom.
Brush teeth, put hair in a bun.
Put on work out clothes laid out night before.
Out the door for walk / run by 6 am.
Home by 7:30 so hubby can go to work and i get the kids for the day!
Anything goes after that! Lol0
