HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
To gain weight you have to do the opposite of what a person does when trying to lose weight.
You need to increase the calories that you get from your food and drinks. Increase in your calorie intake and a decrease in your calorie output (exercise and informal activity)
This means that you would need to : (1)increase the portion sizes of your meals
(2)increase the frequency of your meals by using snacks between main meals .High calorie snacks would be preferred.
(3)also increase meal calorie value by adding dressings/butter etc
I hope this helps
