You asked a personal question not a biblical question.

Re: Purpose of 'Daniel's Fast'...WHY?
What is the Biblical purpose of fasting? People fast for revival. I don't see that as a Biblical reason to fast. Crucifying the flesh is also not a Biblical reason to fast.

Psalm 69:10
10 When I wept and chastened my soul with fasting,
That became my reproach.

Isa 58:6-11Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? (7)Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? (8) Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. (9) Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; (10) And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: (11) And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not.

Maybe I need to fast from AFF and Facebook.

Would the Daniel Fast impute the ability to interpret dreams as he could? It may be worth it if that's the result.
