I'm totally the last person who should be dispensing lifestyle advice to anyone, but of course I'm going to do it anyway. EAT BREAKFAST. You are clearly a morning person, so you have even less excuse than the rest of us for skipping it. You'd be much better off (nutritionally, metabolically etc) abstaining from food, meals or otherwise, at pretty much any time other than the morning - as I'm sure you already know. If you don't like breakfast-y foods, just contravene of our silly cultural norms and eat non-breakfasty food instead - salad, leftovers (curries IMO are especially good..), just fruit by itself, rice covered in soy sauce, whatever.

Other than that you seem to have an awesomely good routine which I'm immensely envious of.

Oh, and since I'm on a massive trend with nitpicking lately (please feel free to tell me to get bent at any point :P) - your choice of punctuation makes it read like Skyping your mother is a chore. Since she's a journalist and all, if she reads your Livejournal its the kind of thing she might notice ;-)
