How much protein should I be taking while trying to lose weight.

I have one of those cool scales that tells me my muscle mass which is apparently 148lbs. Don't know how accurate it is. Renpho is the brand of the scale.

edit: https://imgur.com/a/pOCf1tS - here is the other stats

I am 271 lbs total.

I am on vyvanse for adhd so sometimes I do not eat a lot every day which obviously helps with weight loss but I do not want to lose muscle mass instead of fat.

How much protein should I be taking per day? Since the vyvanse makes me thirsty I have been drinking protein powder mixed with water which is around 80g of protein. However I saw a few posts recommending 2-3g per kg which is around 2-300g a day.

Is this accurate?

Anyone able to help me with a more accurate number?
