I have done intermittent fasting for most of my life but that wasn't intentional, I just don't eat breakfast. I put on a load of weight in lockdown when I started working from home because I started eating breakfast. Adding 500 calories a day to my existing diet without taking anything else out snowballed quickly.
As above, intermittent fasting is a way to reduce calorie intake easily but it's not for everyone. Some people need breakfast to get going. I sit at a desk for work so don't need a load of energy in the morning. I'd guess if you are used to eating breakfast everyday then trying to give it up will only end up being temporary. Probably easier to adjust all of your meals by reducing a few hundred calories from each than cutting out an entire meal. It's even easier if you eat a lot of snacks because they are easy to cut out.
