Step 1
Count and increase your calories. Week 1 should be used to readjust your caloric intake by increasing it slowly over a 7-day period. Add 100 to 250 calories to your daily count until you are consuming between 750 and 1,500 more calories a day. This will get your body used to the extra calories without feeling too bloated and full.

Step 2
Stock up on the carbohydrates. Pasta, rice, potatoes and even sweet cereals for breakfast will provide you with some rib sticking food that will help you gain weight. Adding some healthy fats like dairy and nuts to the mix will also give you some much-needed calories.

Step 3
Eat every 3 hours. During your 2-month time line to gain weight, you should ensure that you are constantly feeding your body what it needs to gain weight and keep a high metabolic rate for your health. It is recommended that you not miss any meals and eat between five and six miniature meals a day. Make sure your meals involve each of the major nutrients - protein, healthy fats and carbohydrates - to keep your diet balanced.

Step 4
Delight in dessert. Since your goal is to gain weight in 2 months, don't deprive yourself of the extras that can help stack up your caloric intake. Dessert, extra toppings, sauces, fried foods and second helpings should all be indulged in when you are trying to gain weight within a 2-month time frame. Eating a doughnut after breakfast, for instance, can be a good way to add some calories quickly.

Step 5
Suck down some sustenance. Drinking smoothies, milkshakes, juice, milk and even soda with your meals can help add calories that won't make your body feel bloated. Try to stay away from caffeinated drinks as they will not keep you hydrated, which is critical to gaining weight in a short 2-month span. Ensure that you drink at least 64 ounces of decaffeinated liquid throughout each day.
