Are we able to give blood to the Red Cross while taking HCG?

That's a good question!! I was wondering the same thing today!

I would not give blood while doing the P2 protocol. You aren't taking in enough calories for anything above and beyond sustaining your body. Also, many people have reduced blood pressure and that could cause excessive fatigue and dizziness with blood donation.

I agree, I think it would be dangerous on our limited calories. Also your body is under enough stress as it is, I wouldn't want to add to it. You don't want to be that person that passes out during the donation

I would wait until I was in P3 and stable.

Thanks for the quick reply. I am scheduled to give blood tomorrow. I guess I will have to cancel. It is more important for me to loose the weight right now.

To all,
I gave blood today. Day 32 of P2. Yes, my blood pressure was wicked low. Very happy about that as I've had high blood pressure in the past. I thought I would get dizzy but the only real symptom I had was extreme hunger. I ate my 8oz of meat all at lunch. So it's veggies for me tonight. Just wanted to share.
