Obese to Ironman!
Disclaimer: this is a brag post. Hopefully it will inspire some others in the process.
In January 2010 I made a New Year's resolution to loose some weight. That is how it started just using this website to track my calories in and out I weighed 235lbs and would get winded walking up one flight of stairs. Over time as I reached my weight goal my goals started to change.
Today I can call myself an Ironman, I recently finished Ironman Lake Placid. Back in January 2010 I'm not sure I knew what an Ironman was.
For all those people out there who think their goals are too hard or difficult to reach you will get there with a bit of determination! Good luck to you all, there is nothing you can't do with some time and effort.

Half Marathon in 2 weeks
Without knowing your workout history up to this point I can't give you the best advice. But what I can say is you can't really gain any significant run fitness in two weeks. Trying to run too much right now would be a bad idea as you will be tired for the race. This week you can go back to normal running, but next week should be a reduction. Just take it easy on race day and it doesn't take much time off to just walk the aid stations. Gives you a little break and lets you drink without spilling all over yourself. Good Luck.

not losing weight
With a quick look I would say eating too little. Your body may slip into starvation mode. All previous suggestions are great, but aim for an average of 500-1000 calorie deficit daily. This will hopefully lead to 1-2lbs/week of weight loss. Slow and steady wins the race. O and maybe not try all the suggestions at the same time, while good, may be too much of change to actually sustain. Good luck!

bmi
While BMI is a good starting point don't get too focused on that number. It is used for large population averages and is not good for individual assessment. I like to compare my measurements to see and compare improvement. Either way, good luck achieving your goals.
