  • 1.
    Врач намекнул, что если так дальше продолжать, до инфаркта недалеко.
    The doctor hinted that if I keep this up, I’m not far from a heart attack.
  • 2.
    Серьёзно? Ну да, ты в последнее время совсем себя запустил.
    Seriously? Well yeah, you’ve really let yourself go lately.
  • 3.
    Придётся заняться здоровьем. Хватит уже фастфуд есть и целыми днями сидеть.
    I’ll have to take care of my health. Enough eating fast food and sitting around all day.
  • 4.
    Правильно. Может, по утрам вместе бегать начнём? Мне тоже не помешает.
    Right. Maybe we should start jogging in the mornings together? It wouldn’t hurt me either.
  • 5.
    Давай, а то одному тяжело заставить себя. Вместе веселее и ответственность какая-никакая.
    Let’s do it, because it’s hard to force myself alone. Together it’s more fun and at least some accountability.
  • 6.
    Точно. И насчёт питания давай: поменьше сладкого, побольше овощей.
    Exactly. And about diet: less sweets, more vegetables.
  • 7.
    Согласен. Будем друг друга контролировать, как в спортивном лагере.
    Agreed. We’ll keep each other in check, like at a training camp.
  • 8.
    Всё, с понедельника стартуем. Только без отмазок!
    Alright, starting Monday we’re on. And no excuses!
