HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Weight gain can be achieved by increasing calorie intake (calories from food and drink) and decreasing your energy output (energy loss by activity).
This means increasing the portion sizes of your meals and also the frequency of meals (snacks between meals).
You would have to be careful not to gain too much weight that would then cause an increase in risk of diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease.
I hope this helps
