However, skipping one meal here and there will absolutely not cause any problems. Worst case, you'll be hungry. Nothing at all is going to happen with your body, it's simply not enough time for any metabolic change to take place. So, don't sweat it!
PS - like they said, it may be a blessing in disguise. So for one day calories are even lower then usual. Hey, you're cutting! If you were bulking, this would be more of an issue, but even then it wouldn't be the end of the world.
