TL/DR:
I gained 65lbs of bodyweight over a year doing starting strength and GOMAD. I've cut the fat and kept most of the strength. Final conclusion is that I gained 30 pounds of muscle in a little over a year (probably more, but I'm sure I lost some during the fat cut.
Laser, I can't tell you how awesome it is to read your post, because your body type (and struggles) sound just like mine.
With respect to your fat gain, what was your dietary adjustment to lose the fat. Could you have simply started on the modified diet from the beginning and seen your results, or did you have to do the GOMAD thing for the gains? What was your daily protein and calorie intake? If you could post your actual diet that would be awesome.
