I donate plasma twice a week and I was wondering how it might have an effect on my calorie count. The plasma itself is mostly water but it's also a good amount of proteins. Has anyone had anything similar to this? Does it just not count?

    I'm not really sure. I know when a lot of us give blood, we don't count the "snack" afterwards in our calories & drink more water the next couple days. I'm curious of this myself so I'm bumping you up!
