bf%?

i dont know exactly i'd guess 14-16%...any suggestions on how to start and what to get into...i just need some help on supplements

Sorry to hear about the injuries and surguries. As for supplements just stick with the basics for now - multi-vit/mineral, whey and fish oils. Just get your diet in check and you will see some good results.

Multivitamin
Flax Seed Oil
Whey Shake w/breakfast and PWO

Once you get alittle time in the gym, you could consider some creatine, glutamine, Nitric Oxide, Test booster (I'm skeptical of these)

Glucosamine doesn't hurt, it's good for your joints, I always had pain in my joints (shoulders) until I started taking Glucosamine, works like a charm.

Most important supplement is a healthy diet rich in protein.
