Imagine a friend of yours, let's call him John: he's 35 years old and not in great health. He suffers from diabetes and hypertension and he has a blood clot too. He smokes and he weighs somewhere between 300 to 350 pounds. You know he's unhealthy, he knows his unhealthy but he doesn't take action to get his heart and body into shape.
One morning, in the middle of breakfast John starts gasping for air. His girlfriend gets him in the car and to the hospital. A cardiologist sees to John and tells him he had congestive heart failure. John is in shock.
He swears he felt no pain even though he couldn't manage a flight of steps for lack of breath. Anyway, John shrugs it off and returns to work as a mechanic. But he struggles to cope with daily tasks and lands up going onto disability benefits.
For the first time in his life, hard worker John is idle and he struggles. He falls into a depression. He gains weight. He stresses and smokes more and worries about the future of his family. He tries a couple of diets but just doesn't feel like they're working.
And then, John finally gets his mind right and starts seeking professional help. He sees a counselor who helps him cope with his stress and depression. He attends workshops to quit smoking and he begins a strict exercise regime, working out a couple of hours a day. He watches what he eats.
After a short time, John's diabetes actually improves significantly. His heart improves steadily and now John is healthy, active and his heart probably thanks him every day by functioning, pumping and beating to the optimum.
