You need to be eating more protein. 1 gram for every pound of body weight is maintenance. If you want to gain I would be eating at least 1.5 grames per pound of body weight. So in your case that would be at least 278 grams of protein each day. If you get most of that from the food you eat (and not just adding another 4 protein shakes to your diet) you should be able to gain pretty well as that will most likely add more carbs and fat to your diet. If you eat clean you can bulk with out gaining much fat.
The most important supplement you can take is food. You could be taking the best stack ever and not gain much of anything if you don't have a diet to back up your gains. You don't build muscle at the gym you tear it down. Its the food you eat at the dinner table and the sleep you get at night that puts muscle on. Lift big, eat big, and sleep big if you want to get big.
By the way... welcome to LB bud.
