You've answered you own question.
First, you're a 19 year old male. You have an extremely
high metabolic rate, which is GREAT! Plus you get
lots of excerise by playing soccer, thereby burning up
more calories, which is even BETTER! Nothing wrong
with pizza at your age, just make sure you get lots of
vegetables on the pizza, and go light on that cheese.
So, what you want to do is gain muscle mass, not weight.
Why do you want that? You'll be better able to defend the
goal by being quick, rather than more massive. Besides,
your body is PERFECT for playing tennis. You have a
huge advantage on the court. You might think of switching
sports.

Lift weights, eat a lot of protein, Working out helps you lose fat, but obviously if you are 155lbs and 6'3 you have no fat on your body. Eat a balanced diet, and start building up the calories. In the Marine Corps, if you are under weight, they make you eat a lot of peanut butter, it never seems to fail. 99.9% of the united states has the opposite problem. If you like soccer, why do you want to gain weight? You are probably very quick and nimble, you will lose that if you gain weight. Weight lifting is a sure way to gain weight, not real quick, but it will work.
I almost wish i were blessed with that probem, I quit exercising for a week and gain ten pounds, well it may have taken two or three weeks, but...

Eat a proper diet and stay healthy ....that is the best formula.
Fast digesting carbs are your best weight gainers,but don't over do it. High consumption of beef has a direct correlation to cancer, heart disease, diabetes and more.
· It is important to maintain a good diet so you don't compromise your health. Damage done because of lack of nutrition is not worth a nice body. Some diet damage cannot be fixed.

· When you deprive your brain,(your brain craves sugar) the brain will take other body cells to convert to the elements that it needs. And the cells it takes are BRAIN cells. OOPS. I don't want to lose brain cells to have thin legs. But I would like to have both.
DECIDE TO MAKE A LIFE CHANGE TO A HEALTHY LIFE STYLE.
1) fruits and veggies, all you want, organic, raw, vine-ripe if possible. Steamed is OK, sautéed is OK even canned or frozen is OK, but lots of them.
2) limited or no meat.
3) nothing fried
4) no FAST FOOD- is junk, no nutrition, empty calories
5) NO PROCESSED FOOD. if you can't pronounce it don't eat it.
6) nothing white, salt, sugar, mayo, milk, (or at least in moderation.
7) NO DAIRY-dairy is great for baby cows, your body does not even digest it properly. check out www.notmilk.com
8) EXERCISE- and be sure to refresh your body with water and fresh fruit
9) NO PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS. Muscle is made from water, replace the water. You get enough protein from the food you eat, You get more protein from spinach than the supplements you take and your body does not get toxic on food protein the way it will with supplements. Supplements can really tax you liver.
10) Good supplement would be Omega 3, and Juice Plus+

11) NO CARBONATED DRINKS, or at least limited. They actually dissolve the calcium in your bones.
12) Calories in calories out.
AND DON'T GO NUTS, MODERATION.

Do some research on a proper diet. Also, look up protein. It is good for weight gain (weight loss also, but it all depends on how you use it).
