    Usual recommendations are.

    Nuts/Nut Butters
    Avocado/Guacamole
    Nothing wrong with Pizza for that matter.

    Just as with a weight loss plan, make sure you include a good strength training program so that you gain muscle as well as fat.

    It will be better than nothing.

    Look into "You are your own gym" it's got a basic body weight program that can be done at home.

    Walking and basic calisthenics are a good start, work up to running and some weights.
