I plan to enlist as well, though right now I'm working full time to get laser eye so I can join completely ready. (Plus it invests more time in my trade skill, so I have something to fall back on when I eventually get out). Now, moving on.
Don't bother with Weight Gainer, it's not worth the effort. The weight will come, the weight will come. Go with milk instead. The important thing is just keeping on the getting fit road. You might meet the requirements, but you wanna score as highly as possible, and when you join, you'll be working twice as hard. Remember, this is a job where your life depends on your fitness level. Plus, with OPERATOR OPERATOR stuff, it's always a lot more work then you think. The minimum is the minimum, meaning you should be able to shit it out inbetween real exercise.
As you start to put on some real muscle (As in, it becomes noticeable), it also becomes a lot easier to gain fat weight. Infact, it'll come almost naturally that you notice you've got some "Thickness" along with the muscle growth.
As for ruck shit, I talked to a lot of veterans before I made up my mind, and the general consensus is not to worry about it. There's not too much you can do to prepare, and they're working on the assumption that you haven't.
