| Thank you for visiting 40 Days & 40 Nights.
Hello my name is Eric Nies! For those of you who don’t know me - I’m a man on a mission. For the last 15 years I’ve been involved in many different endeavors – Reality TV shows (The Real World, The Grind, Road Rules, Battle of the Sexes), the Platinum selling Grind workout video series for MTV, and Freestyle jumprope video’s. But most recently I found my passion when I worked on a project called “The Get Tiny Tour” with a company called Body Mechanics. It was a project developed to help bring awareness and a potential solution to the growing problem of obesity.
The Get Tiny Tour helped me realize that obesity is a serious problem that needs serious attention - that’s why I decided to fast for 40 days and 40 nights. Not only did I want to try to raise awareness for Obesity, but famine as well. In order to truly understand something I think one needs to try and experience it first hand. I wanted to see what it feels like to be starving and let me tell you, it didn’t feel good. After 13 days with no food I started to have numbness in my feet and hands, tingles over my entire body, absolutely no strength, stomach pain, and difficulty sleeping.
Ingesting only water, lemon, and cayenne pepper my body started to break down. After describing my symptoms to my friend David Sandoval, nutrition expert and owner of PHP, a whole-food supplement company, he advised that I desperately needed some nutrients and immediately put me on a program that consisted of 10 super food supplements.
Once on the products, my strength began to return. Despite still having no solid food for 40 days and surviving on only 500 calories I felt strong enough to start exercising. I began with yoga then to my surprise I had enough energy to complete a “Cardio Extreme” class with Michael Blanks, Billy Blanks’ brother from Tai Bo. Not only do I feel great physically but my mind is sharp and crystal clear, something I haven’t experienced in years. I recently had Quantum Bio Feedback test as well as a live blood analysis. My results were stunningly perfect.
I’ve been filming the entire process with hopes to produce a documentary that will raise awareness about obesity and famine. Next on my agenda will be a national tour doing speaking engagements. I hope to educate the American public about the dangers and repercussions of obesity and at the same time sending out a call to action trying to encourage everyone to join the fight. This is a problem that is affecting all of us, which is why I believe we should collectively try to do something to remedy the situation. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this and more importantly for having an interest in making a difference.
