The best solution for losing weight is eat less. You don't need anything else. Just be in caloric deficit and exercise and the weight will gradually come off. If you're somewhere around 500kcal in the red every day your body will begin deriving energy from the body. After a while you burn off the stored fat by allowing your body to actually begin utilizing it for energy just to function. Many people have an unhealthy attachment to supplements, particularly when it comes to weight loss. The idea of the 'magic pill' solution that you can buy and everything is solved. I mean sure you can lose weight taking drugs but anybody who takes drugs will tell you that's obvious but it's not necessarily the healthiest way to go nor is it the most beneficial. The road to achieving goals should not mean taking risks that actually cause you more potential harm particularly in the long term. Wouldn't make sense taking shortcuts to lose weight now only to find in the future you have caused irreversible damage by harming yourself through the process. And this is unfortunately the sad reality of the weight loss world and how exploitative the industry is at captivating people into often extreme decisions. It's a predatory environment that actively seeks out vulnerable and misinformed people to buy stuff that good old fashioned hard work and tried and tested old fashioned approaches has and always will do for you. In order to get better at swimming you have to swim. In order to get better at a new language you learn that language. Its no different with health and fitness. And when it comes to weight loss particularly it's a more sensitive process that requires attention detail and awareness of what you are doing because weight loss when pushed to the extreme is no joke.
As for amino acids, these are the building blocks of proteins. They are not fat burning/toning supplements. They simply provide you with the amino acids (essential and non-essential) that you may not get in your diet. On their own they are not used for losing weight, gaining weight, muscle building etc although they may be used in conjuction with these goals they are just useful supplements to add to your lifestyle. Creatine is no different although it may offer some benefits it's not a magic bullet.
To tone up you need to work out so that involves things like resistance training ie lifting weights. A simple workout plan will suffice encompassing all the main muscle groups and then accessories for the areas you want to emphasise more, say like the butt for example. You will naturally gain muscle as you progress and for toning you wouldn't solely focus on strength, power, muscle mass but more on specific exercises that would increase muscularity in certain areas ie abdominal muscles, arms, shoulders, legs etc and isn't too heavy and taxing. Your diet is also key as you will ideally want to reach a particular weight whereby your fat percentage is low enough to accomodate the toned appearance. Too high and there won't be much toning to look at and too low and you would go beyond the toned look and instead look more shredded/ripped. It of course depends on your body as some people can attain particular physiques at varying body weight, height, fat percentage etc.
