A question about eating red meat regularly.

Im 23 years old. 200lbs. 5'11'' So, I'm not in bad shape, but I can certainly lose a few pounds (I've gained about 20lbs in the last 6 months). I'm fairly active. I work as a valet attendant 3 days a week and we run a lot. My diet is where I've been lacking a lot lately and have very recently turned it around ( quit drinking as well). I've found it a lot easier to avoid eating fast food and other crap foods if I make myself a big steak every night, because it tastes so great. I usually eat it with an avocado and some asparagus. So my question is, is this diet of eating steaks 4 to 5 times a week unwise? Will it help me lose weight, given that I regularly exercise and eat healthy throughout the day? I'll usually have a protein shake and a banana in the morning and maybe a bag of beef jerky. I'll have a protein bar for a snack followed by a protein shake shorty after. Lunch, I usually mix it up, but it's something healthy like a chicken salad. And then the dinner with the steaks and sometimes pork.

Edit: just wanted to mention I'm a complete fitness and nutrition noob, so sorry if there is an obvious answer to this question.
