Starting creatine typically adds 2–4 lbs in the first 2 weeks. It's intracellular water, not fat, and it makes muscles look and perform better.
Creatine pulls water into muscle cells, increasing muscle volume and improving high-intensity performance. It's not bloat and it doesn't affect body-fat percentage.
After the initial loading, weight stabilizes. Strength and lean mass gains follow over months when combined with training.
Ignore the water — track your body composition.
