gonna get big

Ok, just a couple things to express. I really started working out after basic training for the first time in my life. I came in the Air Force weighing 224 and was 215 at basic training. By graduation I was 192. I'm 6'3" so the 224 didn't look too bad on me, but I was fat and lazy. At 192 I was really thin, but still not cut up. I started lifting and running. Through hard training and eating right I got up to 216 with a 33" waist line. Running my 2 mile in 13:34, for weighing that much the only 4 troops from my squadron beating me were all like 170. I could also complete 5.7 miles in a 45 min. run. I just believe great cardio helps your gains and stamina.
Since then I turned 21 and my training went out the window. You know what happens. Well, I'm 200 lbs and a little flabby now. Trying to get back on my horse. I went back to the Cell tech, GNC brand whey protein, Glutamine, and Mega Men vitamins. I also experimented the last few days with No2. Man, I felt bad on that stuff. I drank a lot of water, but my head was pounding. I guess that perpetual pump causes a head ache on me. So I'm looking for something else to help my gains.
I like Cell tech and 100% whey. I get good results. I was just looking for something more. Maybe a weight gainer? I dunno, what do you guys think? Here's my routine what do you guys think? Especially about pre and post workout snacks for these long workouts.
Every workout begins with a 30 min. run. Each exercise is done in sets of 12,10,8,6,8,10,12
M- Shoulders and Lats: Overhead dumbell, seated rows, machine wide pull down, wide grip pull ups, shrugs, and some crazy reverse lateral fly.
W-Biceps, Triceps, Forearms: Alternating Curls, Concentrated Curls, Barbell Curls, Preacher Curls( 3 different angles from regular to middle to reverse), tricep extensions one armed then two, extensions overhead, reverse push ups, and dips, then a funny workout I made up for my forearms.
F-Chest: Dumbell press, dumbell Flyes, Incline bench, military press, upright row, three sets on the cable pulling them together top, middle, and bottom.
On non lifting days I just run for 30 min. Also every night I do diamond push ups and an ab routing I made up.
