You call it "intermittent fasting"

I call it "missing breakfast and lunch and having a breakdown"

We are not the same

Internittent Fasting is when you have breakfast eleven times!? When does the fast happen?

- You gotta be fast if you want to have 11 breakfasts before your 11 lunchies

I call it fourth breakfast myself.

What are Elevenses?

Edit: I'm American btw.

So it's like a late morning snack and tea or coffee?

- Yeah, a light meal taken at 11am, usually including a hot beverage and a bakery product

Delaying one meal is not intermittent fasting.

- Actually, that's the entire point of intermittent fasting... So long as you have about a 16- to 18-hour gap, your body can begin autophagy and ketosis, transferring from carbohydrates to fats as a fuel source. So, last meal at 1700, breakfast at 1100, and yes it will help burn fat (you will still need a calorie deficit, but a long gap between eating helps use fat stores faster by transferring almost all energy production to fat burning).

- Depends on how long the delay is lol
