CHAPTER 2: FOOD John has been on a diet now for four weeks and has already lost five kilos. His new diet is very strict, but he follows it extremely closely. For breakfast, he eats a small bowl of oatmeal cooked in the microwave with either water or milk. He also has a serving of fruit with his oatmeal, like a banana, strawberries, or a mango. And of course, what breakfast would be complete without a cup of coffee? For lunch, John prefers to eat a light meal to maximize his weight loss, so he usually has a spinach salad.

CHAPTER 1: ILLNESS AND MEDICINE For the past few days, John has had some difficulty breathing. He was 30 years old, and it was a bit odd for someone of his age to have this symptom. Maybe if he was a smoker, things would make more sense, but John has never smoked a cigarette in his life. He decided to go see his doctor about it. Luckily, he was able to schedule an appointment that very week and get himself checked out. At the doctor's office, there was a considerable waiting period before you could be seen by the physician.
