Thanks Steff, do you have one in particular you would recommend or a reliable place to buy from?

Yeah that's what the type of supplement I was considering, just seeing if anyone has any experience with any of them. Got some spare money so would be interested in trying something that has proven to have some benefit. I loaded on the creatine on my days off, I put it in boiling water but it...

Yeah doing great on the diet, it's amazing how much you can suprise yourself with your will power. I'm just trying to preserve as much muscle as possible while losing the fat. I don't drink any tea or coffee, just water really so I'm wondering if there is a supplement that actually works to help...

Doing well on my diet, restricting all carbs and eating good fats and getting enough protein. Question, is there a weight loss supplement out there that would actually benefit me? or are they all packaging...

Poor ferrets.

I'll try bulkpowders.. Have you ever supplemented with BCAAs or are they not worth the money?

Thanks Fear, definitely going to buy a pure creatine tonight. They're well priced too, need something to help me keep strength while burning fat.

Bought some Creatine powder from Holland & Barrett yesterday, was all going well until I realised each scoop has 32 grams of carbs!!!!! Seeing as I'm trying a low carb diet to burn fat I'm going to have give it a miss for a while or buy another more pure form.

Yeah temporary water weight is a small price to pay if it helps me maintain strength and lose some fat. As long as it doesn't form in to a huge beer belly haha...

Thanks, I'm definitely going to see how I go with it. Think I'll start loading on a weekend or wait until the 4day weekend at the end of the month. Hopefully there's not too much bloating around the stomach because I'm trying to burn away the fat.

My girlfriend does not appreciate, the stink bombs haha Fear since you've been taking Creatine again how have you been mixing it? Do you just heat up water or are you mixing it with a hot drink? Also did you do a loading phase?

I'm well thanks, yeah by the time I'm done with work and gym I've just about got time to sleep. Been really trying to cut down my body fat, think i'm going to attempt the low-carb approach you posted at the top of the page to try and burn off the last few pounds. Definitely going to start up on...

Any Greek yogurt you would recommend Fear? I know a few can have a lot of hidden sat fats. I've read that the low fat ones from Fage? are the best. How are you getting on with the creatine? I'm going to start on creatine next month when I'm down to the weight I want to be. Are the pills only...

I had a two hour read today while it was quiet at work, I'll go back through and see what I can find.# As far as diets concerned I'll still need to be getting enough protein to recover from the weights but not too many carbs too let the interval training take effect on the fat?

Sooo, at the moment I'm 5'11 and 180lbs. My long term goal was to bulk up with lean muscle but right now I have some stored fat around my stomach and some love handles too, everywhere else hasn't got much. I'm thinking will it be best for me to focus mainly on cardio for now and try to shift it...
