Hi all, I was just wondering about a few things. I'm 28 & 6 foot tall & a little overweight but not by much. I'm not sure of my exact weight (im a 34 inch waist) & have been lifting weights religously for about a month. (5 nights a week or more, different muscle groups)
1. I am not getting the protein I need from college meals & was wondering which is the best protein powder to get. Is this one OK?

So this would be a 100 day supply if I took 3 shakes a day? (seems expensive) Should I aim to eat any particuar foods with this? The food I normally get is junkfood & fries, is it that important to be eating potatoes and vegatbles & lean meat? Should I still try to eat foods with protein or will the shakes be enough?
2. Should I take Creatine too? If so, can someone reccomend to me a brand that I can get of E-bay as I live in the U.K & might not be able to order internationly, but theres a small chance I might be able too.
2. I'm getting hardly any fruit or vegtables, can someone reccomend vitamins or a brand of vitimans or a daily amount of which I should aim for?
3.I dont get much time to do any cardio, is this a bad thing? Should I aim to lose my body fat as quick as possible or would my extra few pounds be helpfull in any way?
4. What about carbs? Any reccomendations on how much I should be getting?
5. How important is water? At the moment im probally only drinking a pint or 2 & this is with coffee.
Thanks for any info given, its really appreciated. I know its probally well documented on this site but.. I need to hear it from someone then i'll take positive action. Happy new year everybody!
