We Feel you Gayle

CBS Morning Anchor Gayle King admits that she doesn't get much sleep. 

“I tell you, I’m happy if I look at my Under Armour band and it starts with a 4,” she said of the activity tracker that logs her Z’s.

King’s alarm goes off at 3:22 a.m. —  with a backup alarm set for three minutes later —  and she’s off to CBS for hair and makeup and prep meetings before she goes on air with co-anchor Norah O’Donnell.

Despite being sleep-deprived, Oprah‘s bestie credits her successful balancing act to the fact that her kids, Kirby and William, are grown and that she doesn’t feel the need to be a great cook.

“I always say they’re employed and potty trained — so it’s not like I have to run home to take care of the kids or fix a meal for anybody but myself. You know what my dinner was last night? Honey Nut Cheerios with bananas and raisins. I was so proud of myself; cooking is not my forte.”

Her nighttime routine includes a workout on an at-home treadmill and catching up on TV.

FTVLive gets up about a half hour before King and we do it without ever setting an alarm. We also can't cook and we rarely watch TV.
