Do I consider my Post workout creatine a meal? or do I just continue eating and act like it never happened?

haha - thats a funny way to put it. Well creatine by itself doesnt really have the macros or calories to be considered a meal. If you mix it with your whey protein (which should also come post workout) then you COULD count it as a meal but it really depends.
For me, when I'm cutting (like right now) I count my protein shakes as a meal, usually mix them with water and nothing else.
When I go back to bulking (which will be in about 8 more weeks - hooray!), I mix the shake with milk, berries, maybe some oats and usually have a solid meal on top of that.

Hmm.. Where do you get your berries? ( skim milk that is )

I personally use skim milk because i grew up on it and prefer the consistency. Some bb think that whole milk is the best for bulking but I try to keep my gains lean and so whole milk kinda scares me. I get my berries (like blueberries, strawberries, maybe bananas) from the grocery store - just the regular stuff. Nothing special.

Take your creatine after you workout, your PWO shake (if you have one) and then eat 45 min.- 1 hr. after.
