The truth is you arent eating 2000 calories every day. If you were at your size and activity level, youd be shedding weight quickly.

I think you probably need to honestly evaluate your diet and count your calories. If you are really prioritizing losing weight, the 3-4 beers(which is probably more) needs to become 1 splash of scotch...or better yet a diet coke.

Your protein seems fine but there is no reason to cut red meat unless you have some sort of specific health condition.

Ill take your activity level at your word, as you really have no reason to lie about that here. I think the main culprit is you are underestimating your weekly calories. You should not even be attempting to go under 2000 calories really. Id shoot for ~15000 calories a week.

All fair points. I've been making some changes to what I have been cooking and am going to try changing up how I meal plan. I try to overestimate in MFP but perhaps that is not the case.

Regarding the running, I actually enjoy it (helps me clear my head) and I enjoy my run group and doing half marathons. Weights have never been interesting to me, but I have come to accept their importance and am trying to stick to a new weightlifting routine.
