Works for me.
I skip breakfast every day and try to push lunch back as much as possible.

I’ve dropped a lot of weight doing that.

If you really want to lose weight drop to one meal a day.

My doc wants me to skip supper instead of breakfast. Says your body treats carbs differently in the morning than in the evening. But I don’t want to mess with what is working. And, I think either I’d end up eating at night, or stay awake hungry. Morning works for me.

If I eat carbs or sugars in the morning before 11 then I get dizzy, cold sweats, clammy, etc. nearly passed out once or twice in my late teens early 20s. It’s not a diabetic issue according to the docs but just the way my body processes things in the morning most likely reactive hypoglycemia where I make too much insulin as a result of shocking my system after not eating for a while.

Result for me has been I just have my coffee and no food till lunch which is normally around 11 cause my belly’s growling by that point.

Still I could lose a few pounds these days so maybe I’ll look at skipping either lunch or supper and making it just the one late afternoon meal.
