yeah you can but it not healthy and good for you in the long road. People never seems to think about what they are doing to their body and how it will affect the them when they are older. Bulid a strong healthy body so your body will be good when you are elderly

People only really need to eat when they are hungry or low in energy. There is no number of meals required.
Function? maybe.   :-X
Function optimally?? probably not. ::)
Healthy? definitely not. ???
I function on one meal a day all the time.  I have no appetite these days.  I do eat supper (or dinner) as some people call it.  I do want that meal.  By that time I am starving!  LOL!

I eat one meal a day every day  :) It's called the warriors diet

If I was given one big meal I would divide it up and eat once at breakfast, then five hours later. Five hours after that I would eat some more of it and five hours after that I would finish most of it up. Just leaving 100 calories if I was hungry later.

I do that all the time.  I always found it annoying how people assume that those who are over weight are constantly eating.  That or how people tell you not to eat when you aren't hungry.  If I do that, then I'll basically have one meal a day with some juice and milk that I drink throughout.  When I was in school though I needed at least two to get through everything cause I had to carry a bunch of heavy books around campus so I needed the extra energy.

depends what the meal is....a huge difference between eating cereal or a huge meal as one meal.
can probably do it if I skip breakfast then skip lunch and eat sometime between lunch and dinner time and i'm good for the rest of the day.

I can do it especially becaue at times I don't have much of an appetite but I actually do better if I take and split up food into small meals through out the day with a small snack of fruit or nuts or something at some point.

I have had a lot of days with one meal a day and I function perfectly fine and never feel hungry andbody else feel this way too. I can wake up around 10 go to school all day eat around 5pm go back to school get home around 11pm and do hw and go to sleep ad im not hungry im sure this is not healthy but sometimes its just what happens

I can if my family let me. :) I under weight so no one let me skip any meal.  My friend she eat only lunch time, and she stay until next lunch time.  I was a maze how she does that.  No snacks between.

I have eaten one single meal a day, and felt sluggish the whole day. I function better with atleast two meals a day.

I might skip a meal here and there due to work (very busy), but this is not something encouraged to be done on a normal basis. If considering this as a way to diet there are better techniques out there. I normally have my three meals a day.

I occasionally have just one meal a day but I do better if I have several small meals throughout the day, such as a bowl of soup and a salad a couple of hours later.

One meal a day!  That one meal would have to be all healthy foods, well balanced, with all the nutrients a body needs and many glasses of water.

You can exist very well on one very nutritious, well rounded meal in the middle of the day.  I do it all the time to loose and maintain my weight.
