Isn't subjecting oneself to feeling miserable kind of the point of religious fasting?

I've fasted for an entire day a few days at a time, it didn't really make me feel miserable.
Not really, and you would be surprised that you feel more of a lightness, clarity and not miserable. It's the same for running, it's hard, but you don't feel miserable when doing it.
