Well, I started with SS and I was NDTP. I went from 155-170. Then I did GOMAD and got to 195. Stopped GOMAD because I started gaining mostly fat, pointed out by my wife. Now I am down to 193, and I don't know how to eat without GOMAD. Any advice, I am throwing out what conventional wisdom I have and am open to suggestions, website reccomendations, etc...
Thanks guys.

Where are your lifts at right now?
You should probably check out John Sheaffer's Q&A on the forum as well as his website (He has been giving good diet tips on the rest days). Basically choose good protein sources (steak, eggs, whey, etc.) and adequate carbs during the day, eliminating carbs later.
My personal protein target is 400g/day. Break that up into 6 meals throughout the day. 3-4 meals come from animal sources (60g), 2-3 from whey shakes (75g).
Sample day for me...meals are 3 hours apart
Meal One - Oats & Eggs/Meat
Meal Two - Shake (oats &whey)
Meal Three - Steak & Rice/Pasta/Taters
Meal Four - Shake (oats & whey) - Carb Curfew
Meal Five - Steak & Veg
Meal Six - Shake (whey & crystal light-protein only)

Squat 240lbs
Bench 150lbs (This is rather easy, I have not tried a 1RM)
Deadlift 275lbs
OHP 115lbs
I really appreciate the advice, I will go check out Sheaffers Q&A I have not really had a look at it yet.

Are you drinking milk?

I drink milk with the first meal of the day, getting most of my calories from the protein and the rice. So far I'm gaining about 2#/week with a noticable decrease in the belly fat.
Milk got me from 150-200...steak and rice will get me to 250.
