No More Blood Donation for a While
The GP finally forbade me from donating any more blood this year. Fe 23.2 umol/L (7.0-26.0) TRF 2.8 (2.0-3.7) %Sat 36% (16-50) Ferr 10* ug/L (15-200) These results suggest iron deficiency. Yeah, 3 times in a year while underweight is probably overdoing it.

Third time this year. The full 470ml this time, too! Yes! (I don’t think the lady next to me was feeling too well.)

Low Carb Base, Domino’s Pizza Auburn
Tried Domino’s low carb base for the first time. People say it tastes like cardboard, but I didn’t mind it at all. The 9-inch pizzas (I think?) certainly looked pathetic in the big boxes, though. Yep. I ate all three alone for dinner…
Got any book recommendations?
