since everyone else is already rightly pointing out the improved quality of life, I'll emphasize that this includes mental health. When people with poor lifestyle habits quip, "I'm here for a good time, not a long time," do you think the rest of us hear anything other than a veiled cry for help? You're obviously not having a good time.
Healthy lifestyle habits are the best of both worlds. They feel better, allow you to have more joy, and give you more time to experience more of it, while aging and eventually dying far more gracefully.
I'll never drink again, but there are some days still that I wish my mind could be as numb as it was while I was a raging alcoholic. That thought is usually replaced with remembering how shitty I always felt and how I didn't give a fuck about anything. Life was a blur.
A mostly clear mind and recovering body is a very good thing. Daily stress is easily managed with regular exercise and chronic anxiety and depression is only a tiny fraction of what it once was. It's a good life now.
I believe the lifestyle changes not only lengthened my life, but it also stretched out my perceived time as well.
