If it was still so simple .. I know one thing - without patience nothing will work: D but my dad is the best example of changing his life after a heart attack. He quit smoking, keeps the diet ... And he is a different man: D it can be! This text was translated automatically. Original text is below: Gdyby było to jeszcze takie proste.. Wiem jedno - bez cierpliwosci nic sie nie uda :D ale moj tata jest najlepszym przykladem na zmiane swojego zycia po zawale. Rzucil palenie, trzyma diete... I jest innym czlowiekiem :D da się!
