My personal anecdote is a bit different. I don't have a breakfast on a daily bases since I can remember, for the simple reason that I wake up a little bit nauseous every day, and it takes me a couple hours to actually feel like eating anything, so I just go on and wait for lunchtime.

It's never helped me lose weight, and I can't really correlate to any improvements in my everyday life. It got me on a daily Pantoprazole regime though, since the long periods without food have skyrocketed my gastritis.

So, as most of the stuff out on the Internet, don't go doing it just because everybody else is. Try it, and see if it fits you. Don't overdo it and you should be fine.
