Cut out beer and soda and move to red wine and mad liquors

Also, maybe don't set a number goal for weight. Biking and gyming will put on some muscle mass while burning fat and you may not see a big difference on the scale. If possible, try checking body fat % using one of the anthropometry methods. At 5'8" you are close to average stature and these measurements could be reasonably accurate. Take waist measurements. You aren't likely to be building a lot of muscle mass there, so it could be a decent indicator of how 'healthy' your physique is becoming.

Even with biking and rock climbing frequently for lean muscle build, I definitely put on some mass and thus haven't seen the number on the scale drop dramatically.
