Nas bro this is what you don't want to do. "Eat less than what you need" doesn't mean skip your meals, rather eat small portion of healthy food 5-6 times a day.
Myth: Skipping Meals Can Help You Lose Weight
Fact: If your body isn't getting enough nourishment, it begins storing fat. Your metabolism also slows down to reserve energy. This is often called "starvation mode". You can lose some weight, but when this happens you end up eating a lot more later on in the day. The weight you lost will just come back.
Continue to eat three meals per day and two healthy snacks if you're watching calories and want to increase your metabolism. It's also recommended that you eat five or six smaller meals during the day. Smaller portions are better digested and used by your body. Eating a well-proportioned meal of fruits, vegetables and lean meats keeps your metabolism in high gear.
Myth: Eat a Large Breakfast, Skip Lunch
Fact: Eating a large breakfast increases your energy level for the morning. It's a good thing if you have an active day planned, but skipping lunch because of this isn't a good idea. Your body needs the noon energy to keep going until dinner. Without it, you may begin to feel tired and sluggish in the afternoon. By dinnertime you may end up eating large portions of everything, including dessert.
