If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

So I was just thinking about this new lifestyle on NSD, and I remembered a quote by supermodel Kate Moss: "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels". Now this obviously sounds totally anorexic, but it had me thinking of an altered quote for my new life on NSD: "Nothing tastes as good as being pain free feels".
Love it!

I with you on that one!
As inconvenient as a strict diet is, it's far less inconvenient than being in constant pain!

Yep! And the bonus is I'm close to fitting back into my skinny jeans from college!

I'm back to my active Army weight from 30 years ago! I find NSD to be only a minor inconvenience now, mostly when I'm eating out.
AS symptoms started 1991. Official dx in 2006 with HLA-B27+, fused SIJ, bone spurs in back, extreme rib/hip pain, and other family with SpA. Started Enbrel in 2006 with good results, but stopped in 2010 due to nerve damage (MS) from it. Getting good results with no-starch diet since 2011.

Sometimes I grumble inside about the NSD and eggs or salmon AGAIN for breakfast, but truth be told, I love weighing in a solid ten pounds under where I've been for years. Haven't hung out at this weight since I was in college, and I don't even have to try with the NSD. "Skinny jeans" are the norm now. I'll second you on that one, Lauren.
