BE USED TO

Hello,

What do you think of this sentence:

A. I am used to getting up at 5 AM every day, but nowadays I get up at 7 AM.

The previous sentence means:

B. I usually wake up at 5 AM every day, but nowadays I get up at 7 AM.

Do I really need to switch to:

C. I used to get up at 5 AM every day, but nowadays I get up at 7 AM.

Thanks for your contribution.
