Gaining weight requires a surplus of calories as well as a good weight lifting program.
Try hitting these macros below.
Eat 1 gram per body weight in protein
Eat 4 times your body weight in carbs
Eat 1/2 your body weight in fat grams
If you're still not gaining weight, up the macros. You have to make eating a priority especially since you're probably a hard gainer aka ectomorph.
You also should lift weights b/c you just don't want to gain belly fat. Compound lifts from free weights is a good starting point. Compound lifts include bench press, dips, pulls ups, push ups, dead lifts, squats, lunges etc. Lean muscle will go a long way.
