I'm looking to gain a couple of kilos, but i want to do it so that i'm eating the maintenance of the weight i want to be, because once i'm there i don't want to keep gaining weight.
So if i wanted to be 44kg, and am 41 right now, what sort of things would i be looking to change in my diet? is it ok to be going over all of the daily protein, fat and sugar goals if you WANT to gain weight? or is that just unhealthy no matter what?
I'm 5'1

I think you should talk to your doctor. I think the healthy way is that you would want to eat more of protein and healthy fats so that you're gaining good weight and not just fat.0

Just enter your goal into MFP and eat the number of calories it tells you. Try to keep your macros in balance just like you were trying to lose weight. When you gain the pounds you want, go into maintenance mode.0
