The point of fasting is to remove distractions so you can focus on who God is. Fasting from food is only helpful if you use the time to focus on God that you would have spent on meal preparation and eating, Isa 58:13-14.
Focus on what you will do in place of the thing you are fasting. For instance, your fast could be social media, electronic devices, or recreation. How will you spend time with God in place of time on your fast item?
Why fast? Fast to help you be intentional about spending time with God, Rom 8:5.
