I train for strength, so I do 3 days a week Mon/Wed/Fri full body each day. It's allowed me to come from 170lbs squat to 360 squat in just 4 months.

A better idea would be to set weight lifting goals, such as how much you'd like to be able to max, and then start a program like starting strength so that your strength increases along with your weight which is more important anyway. A young 6'1 male weighing 190-200lbs should be able to squat at least 315 for reps, that…

For gaining weight and strength I've always felt weaker and performed worse if I was hungry during, meaning less weight being lifted in the gym.

Agreed with the above, Starting Strength will change your life. But... three sets of one excercise a day? The best for that would be to squat. Squat, deadlift, and alternate between bench and overhead press.
