Can not eating breakfast or lunch on thursday; having cheesy bacon & ranch chicken w/ mashed potatos & corn for dinner thursday & then not having any breakfast or lunch friday (but drinking a lot of soda) cause a hypoglycemic episode to occur?

Unlikely: In a healthy adult with adequate weight, it takes 36 hours or longer of fasting before developing a hypoglycemia.
