Good piece of advise right there.....I always try to live by "Only worry about the things you can control; don't waste your time worrying about things you can't control. If it is going to happen it...

Sounds like you may not be allowing yourself enough rest to fully get over your illness. Do you have a separate 'sick' toothbrush? Maybe its time to toss it and get a new one.

^^This.

OP, if you like the jacked feeling PWOs give you, layoff for a bit to let your tolerance drop back down. Its all just a bunch of chemicals that after awhile your body gets used to.

Is this your first experience with creatine? Maybe increased water weight.....

That's funny, this is what I read it as: "can you inconvenience yourself for our manager to tell you you've been banned from the gym?"

While I do hope it goes well for you, I imagine it will not...

IMHO here is what I would do:

Op, you mentioned you hired a PT to help you get the results you want and after 6 weeks you are not seeing it. Hold them accountable, ask your PT what is going on why...

Just curious, are you keeping track of your measurements as well as weight? It could be that you lost some fat and gained some muscle, the scale wouldn't show that. There could be some hidden...

Congrats on getting started. In regards to your nausea during your workout, do you workout fasted? I train at 5am as well and used to get this way towards the end of my workouts. I added in some...

Actually you are the one that is incorrect. Below is an excerpt from one such study, creatine is one of the most studied supplements out there you could spend days and days reading all about it if...

^^^This. Plus you may want to avoid taking with caffeine, studies show when taken together within a close time frame it may slow your bodies uptake of the creatine.

Decided to stop playing it safe on the weights and really see what I could do...
