Protien shakes

Will protien shakes help you lose weight or are those mainly just for guys that want to gain a lot of muscle?

protein shakes will help you burn fat but it will also make you gain muscle mass...

basectly what they do is they pump a lot of junk into your body that isnt good just sitting there. its basectly like a technique like, eating junk food for a week, gaining a few pounds (of fat) to work out and change into muscle. so all in all, they dont help you lose weight. they make you gain.

You can't change fat into muscle; they are two very different things. However, maintaining muscle requires a lot of energy; therefore, your body will burn fat to use as energy to maintain the muscle. Moreover, the protein that you consume will go towards helping muscle growth that will require fat to maintain when your body doesn’t have enough protein in it.
