Real food is the best.

Creatine may help you gain some water weight. The only other supplement I would recommend is a preworkout if you need some energy

Eggs and peanut butter sandwiches. Add in some nuts and bananas for snacks. Aim for 1-1.5x your body weight in protein grams per day.

Drink a lot of water. No sodas

Did you do this when you were doing P90X as well? When do you usually drink it?

I did. I take it right after a workout. Then I typically eat about an hour later.

I worked out late tonight so no food, just protein shake with chocolate milk

If you want size, get a mass gainer. Take one scoop twice a day. Eat tons of brown rice, sweet potatoes, quinoa, red meat, fish, chicken, veggies. You'll gain mass.

You and your fricking quinoa man. Just tell the guy to eat lots of red meat and be done with it.

SixStar whey isolate(it is very important you get the isolate not the regular whey) 19.95 at WalMart. It is the best value out there by a long shot. Also BPI creatine and aminos are good but don't go to GNC for them unless you like getting robbed.

Fast, medium, and slow digesting protein for shakes so the body can absorb protein well after you've drunk it. Eating cold water fish for the omegas is a good idea too. Testosterone booster to help with recovery and mass and a good multivitamin. You could take a preworkout but I'm a believer in workout intensity, not longevity. There is stuff written out there about pre exhaust training which is ordering your workout for maximum effectiveness. Gets lots of sleep cuz testosterone is made primarily when you sleep. When I start a working out after a layoff I do the creatine thing as well so that the recovery time is shorter until my body readjusts to the stress.

If you're trying to bulk just start smashing two peanutbutter sandwiches every night before you go to bed. You can add the mass gainer protein from gnc or vitamin shop between meals but you can get it from normal food sources too. Just increase your caloric intake, but don't go too heavy on the junk food.

ETA:
For supplements
Preworkout: C4 or something similar
Post: 1 serving of BCAA
