skip a day

[nnyy]

I have been studying not skipping a day.
Does this sound natural to mean that "I've been studying everyday"?
Thanks for your help.

No. This is how you would use your sentence:

[A enters the room and sees B reading a newspaper.]
A: "Are you skipping a day of study?"
B: "No. I have been studying,[note the comma] not skipping a day. = I have been studying; I have not been skipping a day.

I have been studying not skipping a day. ​

It reads ambiguously. You could say it in answer to “Why have you skipped a day when you should have been studying?”.

I’ve been studying continuously, without missing/skipping a single day. ​
