I am overweight. I count my calories. I workout 4 days a week.
I hit my protein every day.
I drink a lot of caffeine; coffee, tea, sugar free energy drinks.
Current supps include multi and fish oil. I also take fiber and medicinal mushrooms (chaga, reishi, cordyceps, etc don't ask my mom got me into them lol)

What would benefit me most right now if I wanted to splurge on another supplement?
I am thinking about creatine. Maybe some whey even though myfitnesspal says I hit my protein every day. I never hit my potassium according to that app, though. I dn't need a pre-workout.

If your over weight, creatine isn't going to help.

cancel your next supplements order and use the money to buy some basic cooking tools.

use the leftover savings to buy whole foods and hit youtube to learn how to cook them up.

supplements are doing you no favors if your diet is poor. you're putting a new paintjob on a car you still can't get to fire up with a tank full of unleaded diarrhea.

it's so easy.

How much weight have you already lost? Are you sure you are still in a caloric deficit?

Drink more water then anything else. Also keep cutting calories every week or more cardio so you don't hit a stand still.
