Weight is not the only factor in giving blood. The exact restrictions depend on your country/state/county.
Typically to give blood you need to:
- Be 110lbs (49.8kg)
- Be 18 or over (less in some countries/states)
- Have a blood pressure below 180
- Not have a tongue, nose, belly button or genital piercing in the last 12 months (ears are fine)
- Not have a cold, flu or other virus
- Not have Diabetes
- Not have a genetic condition such as cystic fibrosis
- Have a meal 4 hours before donation (not required but recommended)
- Not be a sexually-active homosexual male (blood of gay males could develop HIV)
Other conditions may apply or not apply according to regulations in your country/state/county of residence. You will be better informed if you directly asked a medical professional in your area.

Absolutely! But then you gain it back when your body produces new blood. There is about 600 calories in a pint of blood. It takes energy to produce all of the proteins and cells in the blood.
