The lobster skin is also its skeleton... called an exoskeleton. It is made of a tough protein called chitin, similar in function to hair, fingernails, claws, hooves, beaks, etc. Usually lobsters further harden it using a process called biomineralization.
Because it isn't flexible, the lobster needs to shed it completely (moult) in order to grow.

How do lobsters get there food?
This is from wikipedia: Lobsters are omnivores, and typically eat live prey such as fish, mollusks, other crustaceans, worms, and some plant life. They scavenge if necessary, and may resort to cannibalism in captivity; however, this has not been observed in the wild. Although lobster skin has been found in lobster stomachs, this is because lobsters eat their shed skin after molting.[4]
