Can you be on a cycle of creatine, and at the same time have your main goal being losing bodyfat? I want size but also want to be slimming down as well. if that makes sence or not, please let me know.

try to go for one goal at a time. but remember that fat is burnt in your muscles so you need more muscle to burn fat more efficently. depends which is more important to you right now.

I was wondering the same thing actually. My main goal is to lose body fat. If I were to take creatine would it help retain muscle mass while I cut?

Yes and no. Generally you want to do one at a time. Either bulk or cut. As you get more experienced in finding what works for you, you might be able to do both at once, but it is pretty hard. Finish your creatine cycle and bulk up as much as you can, then cut. I recommend HIIT cardio for cutting.
