I’m very excited – in less than two weeks time, I will travel the legendary Silk Road.

With a few friends, we’ll be flying into Kashgar, travel along the Karakoram Highway, among some of the tallest peaks in the world. Afterwards, will travel the Southern Silk Road, through the Taklamakan Desert, the 2nd largest desert in the world, before making it back into Urumqi.

I can’t wait!!

One of the stipulations of my detox is giving up ciggies.

So far, have been going for 5 days without any nicotine.

Hopefully, I can last much longer as well!

Detox started 5 days ago, March 9.

For the first three days, I stuck to a diet of muesli, fresh veggies & fruits, and nuts. Nothing else. There’s no restrictions to how much I can eat, but I can only eat those things.

The funny thing is, yesterday, when I was allowed to eat cooked food again, my light meal felt way too heavy for me.

I also bought a bike and intend it bike from home to work as often as possible.

Intended duration of detox: 3 months or as long as it takes me to lose the desired amount of weight.
