I don't think it's possible for the average person to fast in any of the ways suggested here. I think the best thing to do is have a light dinner without carbs and a healthy breakfast. If you do this daily it will be like a daily intermittent fast as you can have a large lunch to indulge yourself. This way you can actually stick to it. I have been doing this for years and am very fit. I made a video showing what I ate for lunch each day while losing weight to prove it works https://youtu.be/v0hYofwTIiw

I'm quite an average person (or at least I'd like to think so) but for many years I did what that first guy from the article did, i.e. not having breakfast nor lunch, I was eating most of the calories for the day during dinner. Not sure how that has affected my health, at least now I'm back at having breakfast again, but the culture of "three big meals a day" is certainly not the be-all and end-all of nutrition.

I also cannot eat meat before 4 or 5 PM, I can't understand how people can have things like English breakfast so early in the morning. I also love fruits, if it were to me I'd eat fruits all day, every day.

Really? I did a form of time restricted feeding and it was the easiest thing ever. It seems hard to consume all your calories in an eight hour window, until you realize all that really means in practice is skipping breakfast and eating a late lunch. Once you get used to it, it's really easy and natural.

Why not skip breakfast and only eat lunch (at 1pm) and dinner (before 9)? You phrased your claim in such a way that it's impossible for anyone to argue with it (I manage to eat like above, but then I might not be an average person). Do you have any reasons to make such claim?
