Dreams of Forbidden Food

I have decided to put certain foods behind me.  On the other hand, I took a nap today and began to fantasize about Haagen Daz Almond Ice Cream Bars.  I have been fasting, first a water only fast for 24 hours and then a dry fast for 24 hours and water fasting again.  I thought I would fast for 72 hours total but I decided to end at 55 hours after having successive dreams of various chocolate and almond and ice cream treats.  I banned such foods from my life for health reasons.  But a recent post by one of the regulars in the "Lion Diet" group has weakened my resolve.  I had become very concerned about the effect of oxalates but he cast shade on the intensity and dangers of foods containing the substances.  Now I wonder if my revulsion against the potential dangers of oxalates, and my sacrifice of the chocolate stores and almonds I had on hand were another folly I committed.  At any rate I took a t-bone steak out of the freezer and plan to end my fast.
