The idea that breakfast is the most important meal of the day has been ingrained in our minds. But is it true?
Thanks for the invitation. I do not know if breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but its importance is great. There are scientists who support a positive answer to the question, as it seems in the attached link.
''Breakfast is a critical meal because it influences practically every dimension of our being during the course of the day, including how we perform physically and mentally. Breakfast immediately raises the body’s energy level and restores the blood glucose level to normal after an overnight fast. It also raises the muscle and liver glycogen stores. Carbohydrate is the preferred fuel for muscle and the nervous system. Low carbohydrate levels result in poor performance and rapid fatigue during training and other physical activities. Perceived exertion is also elevated when blood glucose and muscle glycogen levels are low making exercise mentally challenging. Therefore, starting a training session with low carbohydrate availability can significantly limit the quality of one’s training session and adversely impact training adaptation. A well-designed breakfast can provide an adequate amount of carbohydrate and other essential nutrients to raise the blood glucose levels and get a morning training session going with vigor and vitality, and without being overly filling.''

Is Breakfast Really the Most Important Meal of the Day?
From my personal experience I think so e.g. when I traveled & worked overseas - taking a good breakfast can last for the whole day when heavily engaging in work whereby I managed to skip lunch & dinner. However, skipping lunch & dinner I think partially due to lack of time when workload was heavy.
We generally take our during night time & generally modern practice of entertaining our guest friends we may select even a time on 9 or 10 clock PM .
Due to this practices when we go to our bed we find our stomach little bit heavy while getting of the morning while going to our duty in the morning we refer to have right breakfast along with TEA,COFFEE & our soft drinks this light breakfast in the morning helps us to carry out our work or our working environment most comfortably before going for our lunch time in afternoon.
This is my personal opinion
I do not know if breakfast is the most important meal of the day but it is definitely my favorite.
A good breakfast allows me to skip lunch and arrive at evening with still remaining energy. I also find it very important when traveling abroad.
Recent research has demonstrated the importance of breakfast and its disproportionate effect on the body and its activities.
I have the same experience as Prof. Nirmala S.V.S.G explained so I completely agree with her. Breakfast is essential for me.

For me, I think the lunch meal is important and my breakfast daily cup of tea.
If I have breakfast, I don't want or need lunch. At most, a small snack at lunchtime. If I have no breakfast, then I get hungry for lunch. I've gone for enough decades, usually without breakfast, that I have to believe the myth is just another myth.
When it comes to eating, your body should tell you what it needs. I don't think it's necessary to force these matters, with dogma.
