I decided to take creatine a few days ago

I heard that creatine deliver water into muscles so that they look bigger

Does creatine work without protein?

I would appreciate any suggest.

You will still need to eat your daily intake of protein. Creatine is not a protein replacement if thats what you think. Protein and Creatine are important together especially if you want to get bigger. If your goal is to increase in size I would take your creatine before and after workouts and take 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight. Hope this helps.
