'Diet' conditioning.

How wrong I was
This
Went from 18-12 being ill and kind of screwed my head up about food intake. Slowly conquering it though.

OK
I'm terrified of fat, quite happily admit that, I can make the tiniest bit of fat on me look like an out take from the 'bellies gonna get ya' advert.

He meant fat from food.
Fuark bro, if I went from 18-12 I would be ecstatic. Relive all those teenage fumbles, have access to real porn at the age I needed it, and most importantly start lifting earlier.
Time machine diet - not even once.
If you can get it changed, TS6642 is my real code, for future reference
Used this today, you're welcome!

When I used BCAAs I found tablets to be far easier to deal with.
Plus they are easier to carry with you to the gym.

Hey all,
Looking for some supplement advice for a total beginner.
I've been going to the gym for around a year on and off - just to maintain a level of fitness, as I sit at a desk all day.
Generally I've always had a hard time putting on weight and have a small frame being 6ft in height and weigh about 12 and 1/2 stone (skinny PH46607), and would ideally like to get to 15 stone.
I'm looking to use the 'starting strength' program to ease myself into building but am a little unsure about supplements to go along side my diet.
Is what I have above a good starting point or could some one point me in the right direction?

What's your diet like? Why do you feel the need for supplementation?

The Chocolate Cookies flavour whey is awesome. I have a food processor, so I just buy Quaker Oats and chop them to fine, also having a food processor is useful for making your own nut butter and protein bars etc.
If you use the code MJ22982 it will get you £5 off your first order at Bulk Powders.
My diet at the moment, I feel on whole, is good with room for improvement.
I eat a lot of vegetables / chicken / fruit / I drink a lot of water and tend to prepare food fresh to avoid processed food. I do tend to eat the odd chocolate bar at lunch as well as snack at night - which I'll be looking to cut out completely.
The concern I have is being able to gain weight, my attempts in the past haven't proved fruitful which I expect it due to lack of protein / calories. I tend to have three meals a day with barely anything in-between bar fruit.
I was hoping supplements would help me increase my protein in-take through out the day, as well as looking hard at my diet and increasing my protein/calorie in-take else where.
