Loosing fat and creatine

[Srachi]

I would like to loose some fat from my body to get leaner.I dont know if its in my head or it is true that when i take creatine i lose fat harder even with 40 min cardio 5 time/week.Just a thought that maybee muscles get contraction energy from creatine and the body dosent have to burn fat for energy?Creatine does retain water otside the muscles or not,it bloats you?I think ill get off creatine.

Yes creatine can cause water bloat but the bloat comes off when you stop taking it. Does the creatine you use contain lots of sugar such as dextrose as a way to transport the stuff into your muscles? If so, that may be what's causing you to have a hard time losing weight, in which case, switch to pure creatine.
