It’s the only thing that will wake up my stomach. I usually can’t eat breakfast until after 8, after at least a couple of cups.
I always have my coffee before I consider food, too. I used to just have the coffee and wait until lunch to eat, but now I have to eat before I take my dozen kinds of vitamins!
From the time I was 12, my “breakfast” consisted of toast and coffee. Then coffee. Then nothing. I can regulate my blood sugar much better if I don’t eat until around 1100 or later. When my son was little, I ate one meal a day ~~ supper.
If I have anything with calories in the early morning, my blood sugar bounces all over the place the rest of the day. It’s not worth it me.
