Answers:
Focus on being healthy, thats your first concern!.
Then integrate healthy fats into your meals:
peanut butter
trail mix
olive oil
avocado
cheese
yogurt
even ice cream [go for all natural without additives]
Avoid artificial sweetners and junk foods, as you are building your body you want to do it with substance!. Exercise will increase your hunger and also help you gain muscle which weighs more than fat and can help tilt your scales!.
Eat healthy carbs:
whole grain cereal, bread and pasta
brown rice
fresh fruits
And eat veggies, try them stir fried in oil to increase healthy fat and texture!.
Even skinny people need to watch their cholesterol, blood pressure and sugar levels, so try not to gain on an excess of unhealthy saturated and trans fats and empty sugar!.

Other tips: add carnation breakfast or ovaltine to whole milk---add three ice cubes if you perfer a smoothie; keep nutrient rich snacks in grabbing distant such as roasted trail mix or granola and dried fruits which can be added to whole fat yogurt!.

I believe in being 80/20 which means follow these guidelines but give yorself a break!. If you just want a snickers or some animal style french fries go for it! If you are too focused on thinking you have to eat instead of just enjoying food, you won't gain as eating won't appeal!.

Last, take up cooking!. Cooking a variety of yummy gourmet foods as a delightful way to gain and enjoy your calories!.

Good luck, and remember your body is a temple and each temple has its own unique beauty so don't stress the gain so much as a healthy you! <hugs>Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, there are good and bad ways to put on weight and I hoping you want to add healthy weight!. Muscle weighs more than fat so you probably want to couple some strength training with your increased caloric intake!. Are you able to exercise!?
You should schedule your meals throughout the day, usually every 2 to 3 hours and they shouldn't be too large!. You want to make healthy gains and not cause you body to store up fat!. Do some web searches on weight gain calculators and try to talk to a trainer at a local gym about how to add this weight in a safe manner!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

dont put urself on a specific weight or time range, or you'll jsut hurt yourself!. but to gain some weight the right way you should eat more protein like fish (same as losing weight) just make sure you're full when your done!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
