Due to the fact you are extremely underweight and you need to gain weight slowly, recommend a Heart Healthy diet which means a moderate fat diet to increase ‘good’ fats to benefit your body. Moderate fat diet means = use polyunsaturated (omega 3, corn oil, nuts, etc) fats and monounsaturated (olive oil, canola oil, peanut oil, etc) fats, no saturated fats (high fat snack foods, butter, fat spreads) and no trans fats. Eat low fat meats (chicken, fish, loin of pork) or non-meat sources (soy products, nuts), low fat vegetarian combinations (rice & beans, pasta & beans, low fat cheese & pasta), substitute dairy products (low fat soy milk/soy yogurt), use plant oils, non trans-fat margarines, and eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Eat daily high fiber breads and cereals (oatmeal). Portion sizes are important and daily balanced diet of proteins, carbohydrates and fat. That equals to approximately 2 servings of protein sources (5-6oz.-total), 2-3 servings of dairy (16 oz.-total), 2 fruits, 3 vegetables (1/2 cup each serving), and 5-6 servings of grain (1 slice of bread or 1/2 cup of cereal each). This is a healthy way of eating for you to slowly gain weight and to be continue to be healthy at the same time.
