If you are in calorie balance, that is, your calories eaten equal calories burned, you won't gain any weight at all. 3,500 calories equals roughly one pound of fat. Therefore, if you create a calorie imbalance of eating 3,500 calories more than you burn each week, you will gain about a pound of fat each week. So, it happens pretty quickly. If you're talking about adding muscle, this happens at a slower rate.

How do to you gain weight if you don't like to eat?

If you don't eat, you're not going to gain weight. The only way to do it would be to eat regularily then eat nothing. Then fat will build up making you gain weight. This is a very unhealthy way to gain weight. It's simple, eat more than you usually do, you gain weight. Eat less, lose weight. Eat the same amount, weight stays the same. Advice for you would be eating three big meals, not much snacking. That way you will get more calories in.
