HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Weight gain can be achieved by increasing calorie intake and decreasing energy output.

To increase calorie intake you would need to : (1)increasing the frequency of meals - use high calorie snacks between meals
(2)increase the calorie value of your meals by adding dressings/oils/peanut butter etc
(3)increase the portion sizes of your meals

You would need to consider decreasing any activity that would be associated with weight loss.

Weight training exercises may be helpful
I hope this helps
