Skipping breakfast is never a good idea, especially not when dieting. After a long period of fasting (during sleep) your body needs to wake up again and start the process of digestion and calorie burning. The body needs some food to start up that process and to give you plenty of energy for the day to come. Eating a healthy breakfast is necessary to avoid hunger pangs or mood swings due to fluctuating blood sugar levels.

As a general rule though, most nutrition experts recommend never going below 1,000-1,200 calories a day if you're dieting on your own. It's ... worth bearing in mind that the body doesn't suddenly 'enter' and 'leave' starvation mode, like crossing the border from Devon into Cornwall.
