Status update: I’m entering Week 4 of my Atkins diet and I’ve lost about 6 lbs (also pre-menstrual…sorry dudes…so maybe it’s more like 7 lbs). The good news/bad news is my clothes are fitting different and the season is changing. What the #$%@ do I wear to work? So I got to thinking…

Hands down, I’ve decided THEE best job to have if you’re worried about your weight is U.S. Supreme Court Justice (of course ANY judicial gig where you can wear the robe would work…but c’mon…shoot for the moon). You could wear ANYTHING under there. I’d go for my flannel PJ bottoms, my size XXXXL Insane Clown Posse T-shirt that I wear to bed (loooooooong story). Yeah, yeah, ballet flats or low-heeled pumps for footwear and BAM! I could stay off Atkins forever. No wonder Judge Sotomayor is smiling in all those pictures.

I’m not the only one thinking it. Dr. Agatston of South Beach Diet fame just wrote about the same thing. He also says you can be healthy even if you’re overweight and concluded it doesn’t matter if our Supremes are heavy.

So, c’mon…step off Kennedy and Scalia…I’m sick of eating bacon.
