Eat more meat, drink protein shakes, just have items higher in protein. Also, if you want to get strong, you may want to work more than just the chest muscles. Run, lift and get your upper and lower body stronger. Just eating more protein, and lifting a little will make you gain weight (good muscle weight) and you'll gain strength naturally. You know that you are doing well when you can bench your weight and squat double your weight. It takes time, but man it is worth it. It helps in everyday life, and people look at you different.
Ease into it, lifting isn't as difficult as running. You just need to get into a steady routine, and switch it up a little bit every now and then so your body doesn't get used to the stress. And no problem. I was in the same place as you are, and after two years I've never felt more great about myself.
