    Best way to start the morning. Wake up and have a banana and a cup of coffee following a 45 minute cardio workout or running on the treadmill!!!!! On my days off from working out I don't feel awake if I don't start my morning off this way

    When I wake up the first thing I do is drink 20 oz of water, then go to the bathroom, and either eat then yoga or vice versa.

    If I do 10 burbies every morning I have more energy throughout the day.

    Thank God for letting me see another day, stretch, bathroom, coffee, shower, dress and then wake up the troops. If all goes smoothly, the rest of the day is awesome.

    I'm one of those morning gym people, so I have everything I need already gathered the night before. My good day starts the night before by going to bed at a decent hour. I like a lot of sleep, so if I'm not in bed by 9:30, I'm not generally happy about it. I wake up at 5:30am, brush my teeth and then take my dogs outside in the yard and let them roam around for a while and listen to the waves crash on the beach in the dark and watch the city lights twinkly across the channel (I'm pretty lucky!), then I go back inside, snuggle my husband and my dogs for a few minutes then head out the door to the gym. Oh yeah, most of the time I will put a load of laundry in the washing machine before I leave the house. And! Watch the sun come up looking out the windows at my gym. Dang. I love mornings!

    I know you're not supposed to weigh yourself everyday, but first thing in the morning I go to the bathroom and then weigh myself. Most of the time, if I'm eating right and exercising I am either the same or down weight. Even if it's only .2 lbs, it's exciting to see the scale going down. Success is a great way to start the day because even if it shows a gain, I remind myself of the big picture and what I have lost so far.

    Then it's on to a hot shower, getting ready for work, and a 100 Calorie Yoplait Greek Yogurt and a banana on my way to work (30+ minute commute with tunes cranked).

    Not too exciting of a morning, but it works for me :)

    :smile: Have coffee in bed, snuggling with my husband for at least 10 minutes. :smile: during the week he wakes me up bringing in the cuppas, I do the same for him on the weekend when he likes to sleep later.

    We are almost like a couple from a coffee machine add in that way lol- "Starting the day happily since XXXX "
