2. Consume Calorie-Dense Foods

If you don't seem to have an appetite these days, it's unlikely that you will be able to consume larger portions right away. Opt instead for high-calorie yet nutrient-dense foods such as nuts, avocado, salmon, vegetable oil, butter, olives, and chocolate. Bear in mind that some vegetables, such as lettuce and cucumber, are made mostly of water and will not provide the calories you need to gain weight. Try eating denser vegetables like potato, zucchini, carrot, and eggplant.
