Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. In the morning when you wake up your body is in starvation mode due to not having eaten since the night before. This is the most important meal because you need to feed your body with the nutirents it desperately needs. These nutrients will feed your muscles, and provide you with your first source of energy for the day. A meal in the morning will give a good boost to your metabolism which will help with fat loss if you're getting the right nutrients.

 Especially if your into bodybuilding, you will never want to start the day without a good breakfast. This is because your muscles haven't been fed the nutrients it requires for the past eight hours approximately and you need to get it as soon as possible after you wake up so your muscle can continue its recovery. If you don't eat right after you wake up, your body will use your muscle as a source of energy. This has a catabolic effect on your muscles, meaning that you will be losing muscle. The reason for this is because when you wake up, your body's main source of energy, carbohydrates, is completely depleted; therefore, your body has no choice but to turn to your muscle as a source for energy.

If you make it a habit to not eat in the morning, your body will slow down it's metabolism so it can preserve energy. This is because your body knows its not going to recieve any food for a while, so it must slow down your metabolism to preserve the fuel that it already has. Slowing down your metabolism is detrimental to your fat loss progress.
