It isn't wise to skip meals. The reason most people willingly skip meals is to lose weight. The thing is, skipping meals to lose weight isn't necessarily going to help burn off the pounds. Why? It's because of the metabolism. When you eat, your metabolism kicks into gear. If you don't eat, it's not going to work very efficiently.
Also, if you skip too many meals, breakfast especially, your metabolism may go into survival mode. Basically that's an evolutionary thing where when you don't eat, the metabolism says 'Oh Jeez, this guy isn't eating. Clearly that means there's no food available so we better do something to prevent death!' Well, what the metabolism does for that is start retaining everything. No burning off calories or fats, keeping everything in. That's not a good thing.
It's better to eat five to six small meals throughout the day than to blatantly skip meals. In fact, five to six small meals a day can be really beneficial for the metabolism, and have it working at its peak.

How is skipping a meal bad for your health?
Skipping meals is bad for your health because your body needs the nutritional elements available in food to produce energy throughout the day. If you skip a meal, your body must go that much longer without a boost of energy. It can also cause your blood sugar to plummet causing fatigue or grogginess. It is recommended that you have several smaller meals throughout the day to keep your energy up. Even while dieting, I would avoid skipping meals because you will most likely eat twice as much later on and settle for something that has a poor nutritional content opposed to finding something healthy to eat.
