Its a simulation
Is this the reason I went from feeling bigger to now feeling like ive "lost muscle" and feel smaller?
Good to know. I’m two weeks into trying it out. I’m mostly concerned if it affects blood pressure.
I could listen to his voice all day
Never used any products no creatine but I drink coffee
How much water should be consumed while on creatine?
I gained 5 fucking pounds after starving myself im so fucken pissed tn
I Iisten to this everyday so my fat ass doesn’t freak out
Will the weight loss kick back up after the first week or 2 though?
Who looks at the scale besides women or wanna be women it means nothing if you go up a pant size maybe
I wanna kiss you on that bald head of urs.
This was the answer I needed. Thank you!
Working out for girls:❌
Working out for grandma:✅🗿
I been on Creatine for Seven days and I have lost six pounds
I did gain some weight initially and it did freak me out a bit lol.
Literally me right now 😅
It will give you bubble gut
I get fat face and pregnant gut with it. I'd rather just be cut up
Me this week lol down from 90kg to 86.5, starts creatine and within maybe 3/4 back up to 89kg lol
I bloat. 3lbs in the 1st few days.
Still feel bloated most days. Week 3 and still bloated
I trust this megamind
I really needed to hear this. I'm on a journey to balance hormones through cycle syncing and fasting around cycle as well because I'm perimenopausal and my extra weight won't budge. I just started creatine after doing the research about how important creatine is for peri menopausal women, and have gained 5 pounds in 3 days 🥴
But what if all the water weight goes into your stomach ???
Thanks for this! I am new to all of this, and was super defeated after being in a caloric deficit every day, tracking my macros and gained weight. This makes me feel so much better now. I’m gonna keep going, and keep taking my create daily performance gummies. Can’t wait to start seeing some weight loss soon. I’m also trying to walk 10k a day too. Figured maybe I needed to move more.
havent lost the weight i put on since taking it and im so worried :'') i started with just needing to lose 13 pounds and now i have to lose 20… and ive been in a deficit and creatine for 1.5 months…. idk what to. ive also STAYED bloated, even in the mornings. ive decided to stop taking it today after watching videos like these becaseu i feel like a loser with no progress even after starting in january. maybe this one isnt for me :/ (i also drink 2/3 to 1 gallon of water per day) and my jeans dont fit :/
hahahahaha flex forgrandma
If you experience a weight gain at 5 g, keep going, go up to 10 g, find the amount that you can take where your weight plateaus. That's how much you're supposed to take.
I’ve been taking it for 3 weeks and I’m gaining weight?
Thank you – I gained 4 lbs and was freaking out as I felt stronger and smaller but the scales said NO. I took 10g a day for a week and now will stick to 5g or the measure scoop. Again thanks for clarifying.
Yea i felt like a was gaining weight (i visually see it) because i don't weigh myself and freaked out and stopped taking Creatine.
Creatine and keto. If you don’t lose that 5-10 pounds in a week or two when starting creatine and the keto diet, just know that the water that you typically pee out when starting keto has been diverted to your muscles and when you start losing weight, it’s fat, not water.
Sir i gain 4kg in 10 days due to cratine.. what can i do
Me being mad all week that my weight was going up and I literally just started creatine…whew thanks for this video!❤
This is exactly what i wanted to hear because i was freaking out that nbeen going to the gym for 3 weeks now and started my creatine 1 week ago and gained 6-8 pounds i was like wtf!!! I guess its all the creatine and water thats been going to my muscle mass since i started creatine. Thank you for clearing that up for me. Im cool now. 1st week double up on creatine then after the first week just take the regular dose.
Dude, I gained 4kg (8.8lbs) in a month
3 weeks i went from 159 to 170 😂
I've been taking 5 grams for past 4 months consistently and have gained cumulatively 4 lbs. Not sure I see it in my muscles (which I'm trying to increase) but was worried it did increase my fat weight.
Honestly the fact that i cant really tell that I'm on it makes me feel better about its efficacy. Rule of thumb for me has been anything that works very quickly cant be all that good for the body.
3.5 lbs for me
I definitely feel creatine. I can do more weight and reps
Needed to hear this, on a weight loss journey 80lbs down another ~60-80 to lose and I started taking creatine a couple weeks ago and was getting mad at the scales. Good to know it should stabilise and start going down again soon.
I puff up like a big fat water pig and feel like shit
