Gaining face fat on creatine?

It’s water retention from the creatine or it’s far from the caloric surplus

Yep a bit. Water retention. Drink more water. Most of it is unavoidable though.

A couple weeks after coming off you'll notice your face will lean out again.

Eating at a surplus with creatine means getting fat and looking fatter

If its the creatine, you will go back to normal after a few weeks of not using it. If its the calories then that's a different story of course.

I have definitely gotten bloated on creatine and no longer use it for that reason and others. Manily thinning of the hair.

this is normal. when you're done bulking you can do intermittent fasting for a month and you'll lean out quick and hold your gains if you eat right

Water retention. Try tracking your BF% every 2-4 weeks and base your progress off that.

I fail to understand why anyone would take so much of an industrial chemical, that it impairs their kidney function and thereby causes water retention.

Nothing about what youre doing sounds remotely healthy or mentally wise. It sounds like you're low key poisoning yourself.

What's equally disturbing is all the dudebros on here telling you "oh yeah, keep taking heaps if it. The reduced kidney function is normal."
