Happy New Years all!
The only thing I have planned is to start daily fasting after my wife makes her awesome roast beef for dinner New Year’s Day. I need to drop about 10lbs earned from the holidays.

Happy new year everyone.
My plans are to become a better money manager and fish more.
What kind of fasting are you doing?
I have been doing intermittent fasting since April. Dropped about 50 lbs, stuck in the low 250s now. I aim for 16 hours fasting. A lot of days i only make 12 or 14 hours fasting, but 12 is the minimum for me. Every week or every other week I try to a 24 or 36 hours fast.

Congrats! That is impressive.
I do daily fasting with 18 hours being the typical window. I do however drink black coffee all day, that helps immensely. I did this last year and lost 32lbs but after 16-17 lbs. I got to a sticking point and introduced inside bicycling and daily push-ups to get to a total of 32lbs lost, going from 194 to 162. The push ups did a really good job at keeping my chest and arms looking manly lol and the bike burned calories quick!
When I hit 162 though, I didn’t like what I was seeing, I was too thin in some areas so I stopped and maintained 167-170 all year. Now that my body has reshaped and the holiday weight is on, I am shooting for 160 as my final goal weight so just 15 lbs this time.

Yours is pretty impressive too. I need to introduce more exercise but I just can't find the time or energy. I can't imagine 160, though the charts all say I should be down in your neighborhood.
I have noticed a lot of reshaping and redistribution of remaining fat here too. I noticed that after my heart surgery back in 2012 as well. I got down to +/- 200 then. When I regained weight it went different places than it was originally.
You have me thinking about push ups now. That's fairly quick and convenient to do and I wouldn't have to buy any equipment.

You don’t have to be crazy with it either. A couple of sets a day, say right before a shower is very beneficial. Even if you start and can only do 8 or 10, don’t let that dissuade you. You’ll be surprised how quickly that number will climb but the key is to not go for a number, just keep going until you literally can’t do another one in that set.
