Give it

I found out today while donating blood at the Austin Blood and Tissue Center that you actually lose about a pound in the fifteen minutes it takes a pint of blood to come out of your body. Who needs fad diets when you can donate blood?

Of course, I probably eat enough cookies to gain that pound back after the blood is gone. I don't like cookies really, or peanut butter, but after giving blood nothing sounds better in the world than a snack pack of Nutter Butters. Explain that.
