HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Weight gain can be achieved by increasing your calorie intake and reducing your energy output (activity).
This can be done by: (1) increasing the frequency of your meals
(2)using snacks between meals particularly high calorie snacks such as nuts
(3)increasing your portion sizes
(4) adding dressings/oils/peanut butter to meals to increase the calorie value of your meals
I hope this helps
