Size up

Could you check whether the following expression is right?

I'd like to size up french fires and coke with 1$.

How about this one?

I'd like to move up the size of french fries and coke with 1$.

If both of them are not natural, or there are another expression you commonly use, please tell me about it. Thank you in advance.

I think my explanation is not good enough about the situation. Actually, the situation is like this. If you pay some extra money, you can change the regular size to the large size (or the extra large size). So, it is an option that you can make the regular size bigger for an additional fee. You might see this happens in a fast food restaurant such as McDonald or KFC in your country.

The term probably varies depending on the company and the promotion. 'Upsize' is frequently used this way, also 'Go Large'. To 'size up' means to take stock of or to make a judgement about something.

lucas21c. If you pay some extra money, you can change the regular size to the large size (or the extra large size).
Maybe you are thinking of "supersize."
Supersize the fries, please.
