It's worth noting that both of the breakfasts in the study were high in high-glycemic carbohydrates. It would be interesting to see if the result holds when eating something like eggs and bacon for breakfast.
Second, since most people fast overnight, you get the double whammy of low insulin (making fat cells more willing to give up stored energy) and a caloric deficit in the morning. It seems plausible that extending the period of time when that is the case would result in fat loss.
I've personally had pretty good luck (~34.5" to ~32.5" waist measurement over a couple of weeks) with eliminating most carbohydrates between about 5PM and 10AM.
