If I increase the amount of protein per day through protein shakes/roasted chicken breast, but leave my carbs and other macros at the same level, do I lose weight?

I agree with the person above. You defintiely want to make sure you are getting the right macros because increasing protein may not necessarily lead to weight los. The most important thing is to be eating in a calorie defecit.
