Guest guest Posted September 19, 2002 Report Share Posted September 19, 2002 I'm probably worrying too much about a minor matter but .... I have to donate blood in a couple of days for someone I know. And it is probably a mere superstition of mine but in the last few days I've been eating more - binging really - so that I would I have the " strength " or whatever. I'm not sure this is really necessary though. ly at this point I'd rather just be back on a CRON plan or as close as I can get to one. However difficult CRON may seem at the time - it's far more enjoyable. I wonder whether CRONies are well equipted to donate blood. I am not in the demographic that tends to have excess iron certainly - although I have never yet had anemia either. And though far from the thinnest or most extreme CRONie I am under the weight limit of what they want you to be to give blood. They want you to weigh 110 pounds and I weigh in at 100 w/out clothes. (And no I am not trying to gain 10 pounds in a few days ) - just hoping I dont' get too weak after donating. Yes I have donated before and to strangers when I weighed a bit more - like 108.
