Well, what you could do is eat before you
go to bed, but it also depends on how high
of a metabolism you have. Do you exercise
a lot? If you do, I suggest putting a
hault on the exercise.

Weight gain is something that isn't easy
to do and you probably know this already.
The key to weight gain is to do everything
BIG. You have to eat big, to lift big, to
get big. Say that over and over again in
your head until you fully understand it. A
lot of people think weightlifting is the
key to and I won't argue, it is an
extremely important part. BUT, there is
another thing that is just as important
when it comes to how to gain weight, and
that is your diet.
So, to put it as simply as possible, there
are 5 simple steps to how to gain weight,
and here they are:
1) Count how many calories you eat in a
normal day. Don't change anything, just
eat like you normally would and count how
many calories you consumed. This is an
extremely important step, so try to be as
exact as possible. Also, weigh yourself.
2) Starting the day after you counted
calories, eat 500 calories MORE then you
normally do. So, lets pretend that the day
you counted calories you counted 2000. For
the rest of the week, you would now eat
2500 calories a day. Instead of eating
3 big meals a day or eating all day all
the time, spread those calories out over
5-6 smaller meals. Eat one meal every 2
and a half to 3 hours. To get big, you
have to eat big! Remember that.
3) Weightlifting! Get in the gym and lift!
This is another important step to how to
gain weight, so make sure you are doing it
correctly.
4) At the end of that week, weigh
yourself. You'll notice you're gaining
just after one week! Now, don't expect to
see a 10lb increase. Gaining anymore then
1 or 2 pounds a week is unhealthy and
means you're putting on way to much fat.
So look for 1 or 2 pound gains at the end
of the week. Don’t sounds like much? You
can be gaining 5-8 pounds a month!
5) Here’s an important one. At some
point, you will stop seeing weight gain.
At this point, you will have to eat even
more. So, when you stop gaining for at
least 2 weeks, it means it is time to
start eating an extra 250 calories a day.
Every time you see you haven't gained
weight for at least 2 weeks, add an extra
250 calories.
Including these tips you may take some
supplements also which helps you in weight
gaining.
