Drink milk, smoothies, and 100% fruit juice. You may not even be aware of how many calories contains a glass of smoothie. And if you add a protein powder, it will be even better — more calories, higher protein level, faster process of weight gain. A glass of milk contains oodles of healthy nutrients such as calcium, vitamin D, and protein as well. Why fruit juice? Because it’s better than sugary sodas you’d love to drink during the day.

Double your regular portion. It doesn’t mean you have to overeat. Sometimes adding extra cheese and one more egg to your omelet can make the magic happen. Or when making a whole grain toast for breakfast, add a bit more peanut butter. 2 tablespoons of this butter contains more than 200 calories and has a lot of healthy nutrients as well.
Grab some extra snacks. The essential thing you should keep in mind when gaining weight is that you shouldn’t gain it with the help of unhealthy trans fats in the form of cookies, crisps, or cakes. An extra bar of granola, dark chocolate, or Greek yogurt with honey are the ones that are the best option in this situation.

When cooking oatmeal for breakfast or a salad for dinner, add chopped nuts, sunflowers, fruits, or even honey. Nuts have really a lot of healthy calories that can significantly help you gain weight. Sometimes an additional spoon of walnuts every day can help you achieve your goals.
