It was a huge shock as the 50-year-old considered himself to be healthy - he had always maintained a reasonable weight and thought himself to be fit.
The scare led Bains to make changes to his diet, as well as penning his own book called 'Eat to your heart's content' which is being released this month and is full of 'recipes to improve your health'.
During the long recovery process, he got in touch with his friend Dr Neil Williams, a nutritionist at at Nottingham Trent University, who helped him create the diet that changed his life.
It took months for him to recover, after suffering huge weight loss following the operation and struggling to do anything by himself - Bains could barely walk around his kitchen table, however he was determined to make the changes he needed to.
