Great question! Our article How to Gain Weight the Healthy Way explains this. Registered dietitian Rebecca Scritchfield explains "To gain weight at a healthy rate, a surplus of 250-750 calories depending on each individual, should be added each day." In the article she points out several great food swaps that will help you consume with the extra nutritionally-balanced calories from 2% milk, almonds, and slightly larger portion sizes (vs. nutritionally-void calories from chips, cookies, etc.).
