Part 4/10:
One of the most compelling stories shared is that of Riley Zahm, a 31-year-old from Boise, Idaho. Riley lost an astonishing 230 pounds within a year using Virgin Pulse’s platform. His journey underscores the negative influence of childhood rewards associated with food and the mental barriers that often accompany obesity.
A pivotal moment arrived when a doctor warned Riley that he risked dying within five years if he didn’t change his lifestyle. This stark diagnosis served as a catalyst. Riley began using the Virgin Pulse app, which offers customizable tracking for water intake, vegetables, physical activity, and more. This tailored approach helped him establish sustainable habits, transforming his outlook on health and life, fueled by his goal to live past 35.
