Faint

Just to calm myself down and get rid of my worrying. I was cleaning my room when I felt faint and now I'm just generally weak and feel drowsy maybe. And was wondering could this be because I only had one meal to eat today? I skipped breakfast and lunch and had a small dinner a few hours ago so could that be why I'm feeling weak?

Angiecis22, most likely is the reason you felt faint. That as well as not drinking any water throughout the day. Your body needs energy that we get from food. 1 small meal is not enough.

Thank you for responding and yes I haven't drank much either today so that could be another reason

Agora1 is quite right, your body needs adequate hydration and food in order to function properly, drink plenty of water throughout the day, hope your feeling much better :-)

I made myself something to eat and also had some chocolate to raise my sugar levels just in case they're down from lack of food during the day and drank some water and I feel slightly better thank you

If you find it difficult to eat try eating a banana on a morning! I have one everyday with some cereal. When I couldn't eat and felt sick all the time I made my self eat a banana. I actually ate it before I got out of bed!!! Set a reminder on your phone for meal times just incase you forget!! And drink plenty as the others have said 😀👍
