Hey everyone! I'm new here and i was hoping i could get some help with my diet. Im trying to put on large amounts of muscle because im a thrower and after my first year at college lifting hard i literally didnt gain any weight despite getting much stronger. I want to put muscle weight on though because it will help me a lot as it puts force behind the implements.
I've been documenting what ive eaten almost everyday since the beginning of freshman year so that i could make adjustments on my own but living off dining hall food is useless to get more muscle than fat on so im coming to everyone here for help as im home now and can eat what i see fit.
Also i lost weight after senior year in HS (about 40lbs) through my own diet and now its really hard to put weight back on (which goes against what i believed. i thought it was hard to get off easy to put back on).
My stats:
Height: 6'6
Weight: 220lb
Age: 18
Here has been my diet since i got home from college and began lifting again on the may 24th (i missed some days in my log):

Hard to know...
Is it helping you to gain any weight? If the answer is yes, then keep on with your current approach. If not, then eat more. You've not calculated your calorie totals, and when attempting to put on mass, it really is the calories which are going to matter.Anorexia dragged me to rock-bottom; watch me build myself back up...

Well it hasnt really helped to put on weight at this point. When i got home i went up a little bit from it but now im stuck around 220. What more should i add to my diet to increase calories? Should i consider buying a weight gainer like ON's serious mass or something?
also should i switch to just whey protein instead of using muscle milk as my only protein shake source?
