Is it good idea to just eat one big meal a day?
One meal per day

No. It can be done but why?
No...eating both too infrequently and frequently have downsides.
that is called the OMAD diet
I would actually recommend instead of doing that do alternate day fasting/eating
so example: MON no food, TUES 3 meals, WED no food, THURS 3 meals, etc.
the reason is we know that when you fast greater than 18 hours the benefits of autophagy, digestion, immune system, insulin sensitivity etc are multiplied. I'm all for intermittent fasting and 1 meal a day thing and they are excellent ways to boost what i wrote, but it isn't going to be as beneficial as alternate day fasting if you really want to eat the way humans evolved to eat

If it works for you I can’t hate it!
Yes you can do it, but I'd suggest more of an intermittent fasting diet instead. It's a more fitting and balanced protocol fircresustance trained athletes
