Confession: I’m not a morning eater. I’m DEFINITELY a morning person. Just not interested in eating solid food in the morning!
If appetite were in charge, I’d sip tea and mind my business until noon.
But it’s December in Maryland and the sun clocks out at 5:30 p.m.
And here’s what people forget:
Digestive enzymes do not want a third shift.
Nobody’s enzymes want to be working overtime in the dark.
After sunset, your body would rather be repairing organs, restoring tissue, balancing hormones, and running cleanup — not breaking down dinner like it’s noon.
So for the sake of my health (not hunger), I moved my eating window up.
Winter eating for me = earlier meals, earlier finish.
Ideally 9 a.m.–5 p.m.
But solid food at 9 a.m.?
My body said, “Absolutely not.”
So we compromised.
10 a.m. break-fast.
Before 10 a.m., it’s preparation, not heavy labor:
• Water + lime
• Sole (salt water shot)
• Unsweetened herbal teas
• Seasonal tinctures or capsules
The last tea before I eat is
🌿 Wellspring Gut Healing Tea — to gently wake digestion.
At 10 a.m., I eat real food — today a super-grains bowl loaded with local microgreens, veggies, and my forever favorite: Sala Damali’s kale dressing.
I stop eating by 5:30–6 p.m., and the last thing before sleep is
🌙 Fulton Gregory Fasting & Detox Sea Moss Formula — because detox and mineral replenishment belong to the night shift.
Your body doesn’t want to digest in the dark.
It wants to heal there.
Sometimes health means eating earlier than you want — and stopping earlier than you’re used to.
That’s not restriction.
That’s Self Love💕
