Why do I pass out if I don't eat for a period of time :/?

Question

My whooooooooooooole life my mom and grandma and even my gf have been telling me to make sure I eat..'cause if I don't I just pass out. It used to be really bad when I was younger, my lips and gums would get really pale..and even my complection in my face would get lighter...and then as time passes I'll start to get dizzy, see all these little spots, and then black out until someone can wake me up with some cold water or something.

It's not as bad now, but I still start to feel REALLYREALLY dizzy if I wait to eat at least 2-3 hours after I wake up.

I mean, even if I eat just a piece of toast in the morning, I'll be fine for a few more hours until probably lunch. But, if I don't eat ANYTHING, then I just get all messed up. xD

Sooo what is wrong with my body? I've seen other people not eat for a LONG while, and the most they have just a very empty tummy. No falling out-ness. D:

I'm not saying I DON'T wanna eat..I can never be anorexic..I love food too much, I have a good body shape already.. and I have a very high metabolism anyway :]] But..just to have like..some type of closer to at least have an idea of what I have..it's been bothering me ever since I could remember and I would like to hear other people's input on what it could be.

:DD Thankies muuuch~!

Answer 1

You cannot do that to yourself. Your sugar level in your blood drops and puts you into a hypoglycemic condition. This is not good also you may want to occasionally have yourself checked for diabetes especially if you have a family history

Answer 2

You may have low blood sugar levels.

Get yourself checked for diabetes.

Even if not, eat something  small ( can be an an apple, or Half a sandwich, or  Some l lettuce, half an egg, a glass of low fat milk every 2 hours.

Answer 3

you may have hypoglycemia (low blood sugar)

you might wanna go see a doctor about this.

Answer 4

You need to go to the Doc! Have some blood test. You are definatly either Anemic or need your blood sugar moniterd. I have friends who are both anemic and one who has low blood sugar. It can be very dangerous to keep not eating enough and passing out. With blood sugar levels and passing out you could even go into a coma. You definatly need to just go talk with a doctor and go from there! Take care of yourself!

Answer 5

It's a diabetic thing known as low blood sugar, eat regular meals with whole grains.  Keep a granola bar near.
