I would seriously consider dropping a few scoops and definately not drinking 3 in one sitting. I weigh a lot more and only need a scoop in the morning, another preworkout, then 2 more post. If you depend solely on a lot of powered protein, you'll wind up with something dreadfull like diverticulitis, which I've already gone through.
If you're trying to gain muscle, you'll still need a lot more than 2,000 calories per day. You stated that you have an erratic lifestyle which is very understandable. Sometimes I have to spend a good amount of time precooking a lot of protein rich foods to save for when I'm on the go to prevent me from relying on powered protein. Usually, I'll have some tuna saved in some tupperware or a dozen hard boiled eggs. In my car I actually have 6 cans of tuna in case of emergency...No shit! I eat it right out of the can..32 grams of protein per can.
