From my research and experience with other cultures -
a suggested pattern is eat breakfast and Dinner. Either skip lunch or have snacks throughout the day.

I have also learned that if a person only ate one me - breakfast is the most important because it is replenishing the stores that were used through the night and loading up the body for the day.

Finally, I agree that it is a personal thing. Everyone body is different. There are some universal basics that we can all agree on, but how those basics are applied depend on the person's body, culture, routines, needs, habits and health.
