I go to school in the AM every morning, so what helps me get by on an empty stomache is usually a ideal protein packet (preferably the restricted ones) and a cup of green tea, and a glass of water before that. I tend to eat the restricteds in the AM so that I can burn those carbs throughout the day when I'm at school. I've lost 3-4 pounds this week!

Great suggestion! Just finished my early morning cardio (treadmill).

That is great that you found something that helps!

I believe I read that your body takes awhile to digest food and then use that food as energy. I know when my brother had an early football game on the weekend he ate a huge portion of carbs the night before. My hubby also did this when he had an early "ruck march."

I Am not sure how long the process is.. but maybe your body needed the carbs in the evening?? Do you tend not to eat after a certain time??

I'm sure there are more knowledgeable people out there that can answer this better than I can -.-
