The body has excess fat and nutrients. Appetite is a 'mechniam' which

Muscles are not broken down if you skip a meal or two.

Perhaps it depends on your physique.

Some talk about the benefits of fasting once in a while, but I never
'bought' it. I think that the most healthy and natural thing to do is
submit to your body and eat when it tells you to. Supressing hunger is
possibly not much different from sleep deprivation, which is chronic.
