Help with Fasting as a Christian

I just started fasting for the first time to get closer to God. I decided I wanted to do 3 days of just drinking water. It's been a day and a half of fasting (so like 30 something hours) would it be bad or shameful to end it quicker than I had planned it to be? My parents also tell me not to fast for that long because they say it's unhealthy. What should I do?

How is starvation helpful?

Well, it's to deny your flesh and feed your spirit so the battle between the carnal mind and your spirit can be more easily won by the spirit (meaning you won't fall into sin).@Lapochka
