All you people that wait for “PM” to start drinking baffle me. AM is a wonderful time for a nice drink. On most vacation days I drink in a window of 10 - 2. Then I stop and repeat the next day. Feels so much better to me than drinking at night. I sleep better too.

Beer - It’s not just for breakfast anymore.

A good diet includes the four food groups: regular food, junk food, fast food, and beer.

TBH I cant recall, but I think it has to do with the body firing up the sugar levels in anticipation of a new day of activity. It happens closer after 3:00 AM or so hence the name “dawn effect” You can google the term and learn more.

Milk/cream and sugar are for people who don’t like the taste of coffee

I used to have a t-shirt that said “I do more drinking by 9AM than most people do all day”

My son called me after he saw that episode to say Beth was on my diet. ;)

Actually, I’ve been intermittent fasting for several years now. Initially I lost 20 pounds in 30 days, have kept it off, and feel fantastic. To loose weight while fasting you must avoid all sugar, dairy, and grains.

Yep. I have to admit my care to what I eat is not good as it should be, but I know its better than it was. Keep working at it.

That sugar is damn EVIL!

You can’t drink all day unless you start in the morning.

CM Thanks! I have been skipping breakfast and having lunch and dinner. Better schedule since my daughter works and eats dinner at home. Perhaps I need to stay up late and sleep until 9:00 so I can have a 10:00 breakfast and 5:30 dinner. :) !
