In Islam fasting includes not eating from sunrise to sunset during the month of ramadan. This is done because sometimes we need to learn how to control ourselves from certain urges, such as eating, also drinking, swearing, acting violent etc. It gives us self control and helps us to appreciate what we have, as some people are not fortunate enough to have those things. It is like how some people are hungry, but can not eat food because their poor, we must also resist eating food in the month of ramadan even though we can. It is also a holy time for us muslims to worship God, not that we don't always do so.
For christians I think it is giving up 1 thing for a month. i don't exactly know. I know its during lent, that is when its done.

christians fast for a specific reason ,there might be a healing that they want god to do or a specific prayer,my church fast from food we pick a specific day we all come together in the church, and we pray for the time that we are fasting . this means that if we are fasting all day we come start at midnight, then we all meet in church for 9 o clock and we stay in church praying and worshipping untill the time the fast is finished, we use the time that we would usually spend at home cooking and doing chores and give that time to god. if we fast and we do not boast about fasting but keep it between god and us this causes god to move his hand upon a certain situation,this is the christian veiw
