In my opinion, nutrition is the most important part of the equation when talking about getting in shape. My approach to nutrition is to keep it simple. I try not to venture too far from my plan, just because of the fact that I know it works, and I've seen results with it. Plus, I like that there isn't much variety, so it kind of takes all of the guess work out of eating.
I try to be consistent when it comes to the foods that I eat and the timing of each meal, meaning I eat every 2.5 to 3 hours. I like everything running smoothly like a machine.

Supplementation:
Supplements are great if you have everything else in order. If your nutrition and training are solid, then supplements can play a huge part in the overall scheme of things.
However, if one of the other areas is lacking then all you're doing is wasting money. Nail down your nutrition and training before spending tons of cash on supplements.
