Just a bit of advice from my experiences:
Creatine works great for a build/weight gain phase - in other words do NOT take the weight loss pills at the same time. You should do it in phases
1) go 3 months or so of heavy lifting and creatine and protein supplementation while eating properly for weight and muscle gain.
2) switch your workout entirely to a burn phase - drop the creatine and take the diet pills maybe and maybe a thermogenic of some kind to burn off that fat layer - do lots of "high intensity interval training" and aerobic workouts while not focusing quite so much on the heavy lifting.
Then repeat etc.

That way you build musle mass, burn fat, build, burn, etc.

If you try to do both at the same time you won't have enough fuel to really build muscle, and the water retention from the creatine will hide any fat burn you do.
