I'm slightly in your same situation, but half the commute.... but hilly! I have 2 jobs, so I am usually going from the first job to the next immediately. I leave out by 3:45am also. I've shaved down my commute from about an hour and twenty to an hour and one minutes in a month- partly because I've dropped quite a bit of weight! I found it difficult to eat, but what I did was haul a whole boatload of food to work and I leave it at work. I eat whenever I get the chance. I always always eat before I leave out- we're both from VA, so we know about these rolling hills. They can be back breakers. I also carry gatorade on me in case I lose energy halfway through my hill riding to work. I eat small snacks throughout the day (bagals, powerbars, spaghetti, etc.). When I'm doing my final push home, I get a little bit of energy drink in me before I shove off. I usually get in anywhere between 7pm and 815pm, depending on when my second job ends. *sigh*

You have to find the time to eat- I find that small snacks throughout the day help me best. Trying to find the time to sit down to 3 full meals in a day is impossible.
