ambiguity - I haven't eaten since yesterday


Is "I haven't eaten since yesterday" ambiguous?


Does it mean I haven't eaten from yesterday until now (i.e. I didn't eat anything yesterday and I haven't eaten anything ever since), or I haven't eaten in the period of time after yesterday (i.e. I ate something yesterday but haven't eaten anything ever since)?
