Lent is presently the only period of fasting binding for Latin Catholics. However, I have come across other times for fasting that bind to one degree or another at various times (some being purely voluntary, others always obligatory, some changing with time).
So far I have seen:
* St. Michael's Lent
* Advent
* "Summer lent" or St John the Baptist's lent
* Rogation days, vigils, and Ember Days
Are there any other periods of fasting that have been customarily observed by Latin Catholics throughout history?
