I feel like that is too aggressive of a weight gain plan. Even 1 pound a week will be tough. You don't want to get discouraged and quit. You also don't want it all to go to your belly. You might end up with one week of no gains and another week of 3 pounds gain. Just keep on your calorie goal.
When I ended up gaining my weight fast it was not really in the healthiest way and I ended up overshooting my goal and having a big tummy. I went from 112 to 136+ in about 2 months. I had been trying for a long time to gain weight, but never could. It happened when I fell in love and was eating out a lot, drinking and being happy.
It was much harder to get back down to my goal of 125ish.
Get plenty of protein and healthy calories, especially good fats.
Try not to do much cardio, but lifting heavy weights is good if you don't have any medical reasons you can't.
If you don't see any changes after 4 weeks re-evaluate. But, it can take up to 8 weeks to start seeing results from a lifestyle change. Just my experience.
