I do. I’ve never been hungry first thing in the morning. I don’t get hungry until about 11.

Or various other things, like yogurt with fruit. It's so nice that I don't have to worry about her.
Hopefully she’s brushing her teeth after that smelly meal!
It doesn't smell at all. She does brush her teeth. And you're so racist. You think your food doesn't smell?

Why would you think that? Many people don't get hungry till later.
I wouldn’t do 2-4 hours of morning dance or exercise in zero calories since yesterday’s dinner.
Surely she’s eating something before noon.

You are insane.

I don’t buy donuts and sugary cereal for the house. But there is nothing wrong with a bowl of plain Cheerios or a homemade bagel. We make a lot of bread in my house: bagels, baguettes, sourdough, flat breads. Rest assured teens are getting donuts at plenty of sugar at school.
Homemade?? Ha.
