Answer
Hi John,
I'm not sure if you are a vegetarian or not, but eating all plant foods tends to keep people more on the thin side.
It's difficult to get in a lot of calories when you're eating low calorie fruits and vegetables.
Be sure to eat several times a day. Nuts are a food with more calorie density than others. Dried fruits also have more calories.
When you can, have a snack of nuts and dried fruit between meals.
If you would like a supplement to help you gain weight try Carnation Instant Breakfast Drink two or three times a day. It has lots of calories and protein.
Expect to gain only one or two pounds per week.  It comes on slowly but in a few months taking in extra calories will help you put on some weight.
