I have skipped meals for years and my doctor told me it wont be doing me any good with weight loss as my body goes into starvation mode and stores fat... ive got plenty for it to store believe me!
I dont purposly skip meals but I have never been in a routine with regards to food. I work fulltime and have 2 children i'm so busy in the mornings I often dont eat anything until 12pm, if I have a meeting or anything at work then I dont eat until about 6pm in the evening. In the past I have snacked on junk, so if there is a cake or biscuit in the office I'd have one but now I have stopped that so I dont eat. Recently I have been so busy that I havent eaten a meal all day, not even tea and just had some toast or fruit and yoghurt before bed.... not good!
