Im trying to lose weight and build muscle and ive been told to take creatine and whey protein by a few of the members on here, but when I went to go buy it they told me its a weight gain supplement and its not what im looking for

It's not a weight gain supplement, it might cause you to carry a bit more water weight than usual but thats it. Just out of curriosity did you to GNC to buy it?

i didnt buy, i figured ill comeack here and get more advice first, but yes GNC is where i went, prtty much only store in town

Dont listen to anything they have to tell you, most of it is a rehearsed product speach that they give to everybody when they dont even understand it themselves. Your best bet when buying a supplement is to do some research on it yourself so they cant take you for a fool and then take your money.

whenever i get bored and go through a mall, i like to walk into gnc and make salepeople look like fools for whoever is around to hear.

haha, right? i either order offline or i just go to vitamin shoppe...they know their shit and a buddy of mine works there, who also knows his shit.

don't listen to those NOOBS in GNC, either that or order from our forums online shop nutra planet...

get some;
whey (optimum nutrition, highly recommended)
creatine monohydrate (prolabs, personal recommendation)
flax seed (any from a health store)
multivitamins (any from a health store, just stay away from dirt CHEAP ones & animal pak)
arginine (any)
casein protein (reflex micellar casein, personal recommendation) before bed

remember what GNC stands for
G.OT
N.O
C.LUE
