Sorry no-one has replied sooner. With your history you are right to think twice about fasting even for religious reasons - the mind can be very strong & fasting may get the bulimia &/or anorexia started again by opening that door. No religion wants you dead just to observe a fast or whatever - at least no decent one.

I think you should talk to your mum openly, perhaps to a dr (if you have a good relationship with him/her) & discuss just how long you want to fast & why, what you would eat/drink (you need something) & whether this would interfere with your work/study &/or cause health problems.

Actually fasting will have a reverse effect and can just push you into bulimia afterwards even deeper. Trust me, ive tried it. Its a very bad idea. If u want to recover, u have to focus on eating healthily, and enough calories and not restricting. So fasting is not good at all*

I agree, fasting might make it worse, as your body will continue to sustain starvation mode and you will crave food even more. I wouldn't do it if I were you. What you should focus on is getting enough calories into your system, and eating regularly throughout the day without going hungry for too long. This way you will eventually prevent the urges to binge and purge (which is mostly triggered by the fact that you are depriving your body of nutrients) and with time, you won't want to do it anymore.
The best thing is to see a counsellor/dietician and establish a healthy eating plan. That helped me so much, and I know it saved my life. It can do the same for you.
