I'd say not eating until lunch time would cause more harm than good!

Most people say wait anywhere from 30-60 min after.

I Think The Answer Is Yes. I Do It. Sometimes. You Slept The Whole Night Without Eating..

is it true that after cardio you should wait about an hour before eating??? I only do weights and eat right after..

Why Cardio & Weights Should Be Split

I would strongly suggest waking up at 7am, drinking a shake and then sleeping to 11 or 12, whatever you desire. It is called breakfast for a reason, meaning to "break" the "fast." However, if you are going to bed a 3-4am and getting up at 11-12 to do cardio, then it is no different than the norm. I only suggest you take the shake if you are sleeping 12-14 hours or something.
