Anybody tried donating blood to lose weight?

I read that you can burn over 600 kcal from donating blood so about 12 donations should burn about 1 kg

You are fucking retarded. Your blood cells are constantly dying and regenerating.

>Losing 1kg every 3 years.
There are benefits to the donation like fixing iron levels and the your metabolism has to work harder to produce the missing blood in the following days though.
Since blood donation is bloodletting with extra steps there seems to be a net positive effect on doing it.
>>
>>75133176
They only let you donate blood once every couple months. You're not going to lose weight in any appreciable manner by doing it.

It's good for getting rid of micro plastics, but your giving the government your blood. I practice self phlebotomy at home twice a month by jabbing a needle into my forehead, and drawing about 2 to 3 cups of blood.
>>
>>75133266
You can donate up to 24 times a year so 2 kg lost per year
>>
I donate plasma twice a week to afford trips to denver to fuck a girl I knew in highschool. Am I losing gains by doing this?
>>
>>75133176
it seems some countries actually pay you to donate blood
when I learned my third world shithole gives you absolutely nothing in return, I decided against it forever
>abloobloobloo
Don't care, not my problem, still not giving my own blood for free

donating blood actually increases the rate at which your body creates new blood cells and increases total cell count when you go back to baseline.

not recommended for people who have chronic high BP or atherosclerosis (plaque)

Cost/Benefit analysis
Donating blood uses not just calories, but nutrition.
It will cost you more than just working out would to replace that nutrition.

Unless you're getting paid it isn't worth it.

>Your blood cells are constantly dying and regenerating.
Yes and the energy needed for that is included in you basal metabolic rate. If you get rid of extra blood, you need more calories to make need blood.

What is his routine? How do I get this physique?
>>
>>75133586
I just get a knife and carve a gash onto a random part of my body. Get rid of the blood and get some cool scars.
>>
>>75135112
To me. I like to have blood orgies, but I don't actually want to hurt anyone.
