Or you could be a glutton and live a short, miserable, self-indulgent life.

Fasting not only improves health. It also sharpens the mind.

As an aside, there's a reason the Bible is full of admonitions about fasting.

I would also point out that fasting makes one really appreciate the food you get.

During Lent I do fast and after Easter I learnt to appreciate the gifts given by God

Another thing is, it saves a LOT of money these days. Especially if you eat more expensive high-quality food.
