Answer 1

For religious reasons, instead of fasting, which really accomplishes nothing except suffering, try volunteering at a local soup kitchen or hospital. You'll feel better about yourself and you would be helping others, as Jesus wants you to.

Answer 3

Nothing is good about fasting, sure you may lose a few lbs, but your body goes into starvation mode, and the second you eat again, everything will be stored as fat. You will probably gain everything back plus more if you go back to eating normally. Fasting is really not a good alternative to lose weight, it can turn bad pretty fast, such as dizziness and such. or it can turn into an ED. Be careful, i'd say just diet and exercise, and you will lose teh weight, but don't fast.
