Why are you drinking protein? You should have a balanced diet, which means you're getting enough protein from your actual food. The exception is you being a vegan. I hope you know that drinking protein doesn't give you muscle, neither does working out. Protein and working out work together to give you muscle. First the working out rips your muscles, then the protein repairs it. And when it get repaired, it comes back stronger. Another thing to point out is that gaining muscle will give you more muscular weight, but it will make you lose the weight provided by the body fat. How does gaining muscle make you lose weight? The actual muscles and the act of working out keeps the metabolism going, and the metabolism burns calories. Your metabolism is how quickly the body turns food into energy.
