What do you sacrifice when you adhere to such rules? Naturally, morals and principles aren't solely religious based. Normal, decent people with a conscious and a sense of humanity wouldn't act on a desire that was harmful to others or themselves...I'm not speaking about anything insane, I mean, stuff like having a few drinks at a friends house, going to see a movie, having sex with a boyfriend or girlfriend, having that 2nd leg of chicken, spending a lot of money on yourself to get something you want...etc.
How does forgoing even the most humblest desire and forgoing food (fasting) make one more closer to anything except insanity? Do you ever get grouchy whilst on a holy fest?
