Protein Shake?

Options
So I've realized that I need more protein in my diet. I'm a college student so eating meat all the time is really difficult, cause you know, half the things they serve us isn't meat or isn't healthy, lean meat.
My question is, should I invest in getting protein powder to supplement my diet? I'm currently 92 lbs and I feel as if I up my protein I'll gain some healthy weight back that I need to. Thoughts?

    Are you doing more eating out than cooking yourself? Can't beat the protein you get from eggs. Beans/legumes as well.

    you weigh 90lbs, so that's like a pot of cottage cheese+ 2 pork loin steaks and a pint of milk to make your daily protein amounts.

    Yes, a protein powder or shake would be a great supplement to your diet.
    There are a lot of different types/quality of protein out there...

    Syntha -6 is probably up there in quality.
    Muscle Milk is great too.
    There are also, hemp based proteins if that's more your thing.
