Well, I suppose everything is a tool. I'm not on the GLP train for me at least right now so... it was actually interesting as I've seen several bodybuilders and coaches talk about it lately. There's half the camp in the definitely use it category - removes hunger and suffering at the hardest part of prep.
However there's the other half that sorta says, the suffering is the point. Almost like a badge of honor. Now there's also the potential downsides of it slowing gut motility too much when you need to force feed on show day / few days leading up and not really being able to.
So, interesting just theoretically for me at the moment.

Notes
Definitely not my favorite session this AM, and wasn't truly in the zone. But got it all done and then some.
Restocked this weekend. Here's what I picked up, some more creatine, multis, collagen, SNS daily stuff, and some more XPG gels. Also couldn't pass up some good bars and energy drink deals.
Random life stuff:
Getting excited for my short trip to Vegas! Because of the flight time and time changes coming back, I'm basically there for no time at all. But already booked two meals at some good looking restaurants, still gotta fit in a premium steak dinner somewhere, and am planning to work in a trip to the Newtech gym and probably Dragon's Lair session - mostly due to AM time constraints. Some of the other gyms like Fit Club don't open until like 8 AM on the weekdays, WTF??
Dinner tonight out with my wife, no kids. That's a treat in and of itself!
We also "inherited" a dog for the next month while my sister-in-law's family goes galvanting around the world. LOL. Kids are happy though, so another good "test run" for our family on whether a pup is in our future... wish us luck!
As I say this, my daughter came down and asked to walk the dog - so a good sign the kids are taking responsibility!
