I stopped tracking calories after 3 months. It's not very productive, and that's not how calories work. Our bodies are not thermal generators and it doesn't run on heat.
Take the majority of your "calories" from fat, i.e >50%, cut all carbs if possible, and if you *must* have carbs, limit it to 20 grams a day. The rest of your macro can be protein. When you eat, you eat until you are full. Drink water only when you are thirsty, and avoid eating 3-4 hours prior to sleeping.
One thing about protein and the use is that in order for your body to form a certain protein molecule, it will need the entire set of amino acids. Think of it as spelling a word, if it's missing a letter, then the set of letters is useless, and will be converted to glucose (through gluconeogenesis). So take as many different types of protein as you can, but beef and eggs are typically the most complete and bioavailable sources.

Carbs are good, they fuel your day and workouts.
Im an advance lifter and eat 400grams carbs per day
Lot of big bodybuilders eat 600+ grams carbs per day
Protein from plants are still useful even not complete. You can pair with other plants to make them complete.
All meat sources have complete protein, not only beef/eggs.
