Can anyone let me know if it's safe or unadvisable to give blood whilst on TS? I'm due again next week, and didn't think twice about it until hubby mentioned maybe i should check first, noone likes a fainter! :)
 
I think I remember reading somewhere that it is quite unadvisable to give blood while on a VLCD as, like you say, it could make you quite prone to fainting, I know I wouldn't like to give blood on this diet as it makes me feel faint enough when I'm eating normally ha :)
 
You're right you can't give blood if you're doing TS
 
Yup it's a no no :-(
 
Thanks for the replies guys, looks like its a no! Wish i'd waited a week to start my diet now, I didn't even think, now I feel horribly selfish :( But I really don't want to go through going into ketosis again :(
