Choose foods high in nutrients. Choose whole-grain breads, pastas, and cereals as part of a balanced diet, as well as fruits and vegetables, dairy products, lean protein sources, and nuts and seeds.
Smoothies and shakes are great options. Avoid diet Coke, coffee, and other beverages with low calories and little nutritious value. Instead, make smoothies or nutritious shakes with milk and fresh or frozen fruit, and top with ground flaxseed. A liquid meal replacement may be indicated in rare instances.
Take care while you drink. Some people discover that consuming fluids before to meals reduces their appetite. In that situation, sipping higher calorie beverages alongside a meal or snack may be preferable. Others may benefit from drinking 30 minutes after a meal rather than during it.
Make every mouthful count. Consume nuts, peanut butter, cheese, dried fruits, and avocados as snacks. Make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich or a wrap sandwich with avocado, cut vegetables, and lean meat or cheese for a bedtime snack.
Allow yourself an occasional pleasure. Even if you're underweight, extra sugar and fat should be avoided. A slice of pie with ice cream every now and then is fine. However, most sweets should be nutritious in addition to caloric. Bran muffins, yoghurt, and granola bars are all healthy options.
Exercise. Exercise, particularly strength training, can help you gain weight by strengthening your muscles. Exercise might also increase your hunger.
