Answer 1

try adding Soya to your meals

Answer 2

So many people are trying to LOOSE weight that it's hard for someone like us trying to GAIN weight to find help.

1- Muscle weighs more than fat. If you exercise and eat enough calories, you should gain weight. This method of gaining weight wont make you look less bony though.

2- you're in the 'growth-spurt' age. Many people your age naturally loose a lot of weight as they grow. You might have just completed a growth spurt, and will naturally gain a little pudge in the next few years, only to have it disappear in your next growth spurt.

3- make sure you're getting all the nutrition you need. It's easy to say you're vegan, but it could just mean that you're subsisting mostly on wheat or soy, and not a balanced diet. Diversify your diet, eating lot of healthy vegetables and as wide a variety of plant foods as you can get a hold of.

4- it's been said before, but nuts are a great resource for vegans. They have lots of fats (high energy = more calories that your body can utilize for growth and whatever 'padding' you want), nuts also have protein, and tree nuts can have lots of good minerals because their roots grow deep.

Good luck!

Anything with starch
