I'm usually off to the races well before its departure time (1 ~ 2 hrs after alarm). Sometimes I can get an additional weight loss session in when I arrive at the office - which is yet another good reason for arriving an hour before anyone else.
+1, Regularity is the shi.. well, it's great is what I mean to say. Heavy on the veggies, light on the cheese, a couple of cups of coffee, and plenty of time in the morning means that I'm always a little bit lighter in the saddle than when I got out of bed.
It'll catch up with you if you sleep in though. I've hit the door running late a couple of times, only to come right back in because the bowels awoke as I was running down the stairs. Still, I think that I get in less trouble being a few minutes late to work than showing up with sharted shorts. It's a lot less embarrassing, at least.
