I Burned an Extra 650 Calories Today
I burned an extra 650 calories today....according to memorial blood centers due to the fact that I donated blood. I don't know how accurate that really is, but I felt fine afterwards (I had chex mix, not a cookie, though) and I am hoping to get back into the habit of doing this again after not having done so because my blood pressure was higher than it should have been.

Hooray for you RP!!! Donating blood is one of the best things you can do for the community at large. I was a regular donor before my original cancer was diagnosed Did you know that your one pint of donated blood can actually help to save up to 9 people???
For those of you (including me) who can no longer donate for one reason or another remember that the Red Cross and Memorial Blood Center can also use volunteers. If you have the time and desire they will put you to work!!
