Diet quality's affect is only a change in the ratio of fat vs muscle gained of the TOTAL weight gained, however quantity is always the limiting factor and gains have to be made through quantity while quality takes care of what is actually being gained. Might sound confusing, but eat more, and eat better. Unless you're getting like 4hrs of sleep a night, and you train like a yoga instructor, diet is the only thing holding you back.
