Ever hear of HEAVY WATER?
In school you might have studied "deuterium oxide" whose formula is 2H20. Double the normal water formula, it seems. It needs
more heat to boil... 213.8°F (101°C) instead of H20's 212°F.
From Wikipedia:
"Some or most of the hydrogen atoms in heavy water contain a neutron,
making each hydrogen atom about twice as heavy as a normal hydrogen atom."
I was thinking of HEAVY WATER this morning.
I got up at 5 AM to take my thyroid medicine pill with about 4 ounces of water.
But I was tired, so I laid back in bed and dozed off until 6:30.
When I awoke, I got on the scale a 2nd time... actually #3 and 4 since I always weigh twice
in case the scale is crazy -- 2nd reading verifies my vision also:)
No Kidding::: In 90 minutes, I gained 1-1/2 pounds.
From 4 ounces of water.
The only valid explanation I can think of is...
Heavy Water.
Here's why this fits a dieting blog:
1. Of course, to encourage you in case you find the same:{
2. To remind of a saying that's so common we think it's trite...
BUT IT IS TRUE:
God calls us to perseverance.... not to success.
God calls us to act godly ......... any level of success is
.... HIS job description responsibility.
The Joy for us Dieters: This is COMFORTING.
God's Supporting Word
Pressing Toward the Goal
12 Not
that I have already attained, or am already perfected;
but I press on,
that I may lay hold of that for which
Christ Jesus has also laid hold of
me.
13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended;
but one thing I do,
forgetting those things which are behind
and reaching forward to those things which are ahead,
14 I press toward the goal for the prize
of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
15 Therefore
let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise,
God will reveal even this to you. .......... see also James 1: 5-6
A good "Word From God" to memorize for "2H20" days.
Don't be discouraged -- even after a day of "failure".
Simply seek to please God in all you do...
including food & exercise choices...
God cares about you & me... not a number on a scale.
PRAYERGod cares about you & me... not a number on a scale.
YOU have promised - give me wisdom as I pray (James 1:5-6).
Help me have courage to put on the WEAPONS You offer, to STAND... Always.
I pray with deep thanks, in Jesus's Holy Name. LINK: Ephesians 6:10-18
