Does a person loses pounds when donating blood?!
Question: No, they ask you to replenish your fluid levels right away. Your bone marrow kicks in and produces more blood to replace the small amount that is lost. Besides, they don't take that much.

no wth would you think that?
its like half a pound. its not significant. you drink liquid and replace it quick.
No. You're donating blood, not fat.
One pint of blood weighs one pound. Therefore you lose one pound when you donate a pint of blood.
However, since it's liquid, that pound will be regained when you drink anything afterwards.
A pint of blood weighs about a pound, same as a pint of water.
It's mostly just water, though. The water comes back within a day, the rest comes back in a few weeks.
