Default Calorie deficit and lifting more

I have been doing Rippetoe for about 2 months now. I have been steadily losing 2 pounds per week for the past 6 months and am down to 201. I have been eating about 1750 calories per day on average. I'm thinking I should up this to at least 2k. At which point should I begin to add more calories? I am losing weight which was my main goal from the beginning but it seems like my press numbers have really stalled beyond my beginner gains. I know I have a lot more fat to lose, what is the most efficient way to do that? Continue on my current path or try to add more muscle now?
