Definition

Fasted is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "fast," which primarily has two meanings. The first meaning of fast is to abstain from all or certain types of food and drink, usually for religious, health, or spiritual reasons. It involves refraining from eating and drinking for a specific period of time as a demonstration of self-discipline or as a way to purify the body or soul.

Furthermore, fast can also mean the action of restricting or refraining from something other than food, such as abstaining from engaging in a particular activity or habit. For instance, a person might fast from social media, television, or other distractions as a means of self-control, personal reflection, or redirecting one's focus towards more important matters.
