    Donna,

    Check out the nutrition section, there are threads like this:

    that might be really interesting to you.

    There are all sorts of things that it could be and you have received some great advice. I've noticed that since I've become older, my body has changed. I think that happens....it also means we just have to work a bit harder

    I know what it's like being unhappy about the way things are. I also know what it's like to work hard and not see the results you'd like. I also think, though, that sometimes we are our own worst critics.

    Definitely get checked out though, it sounds like you are doing everything you can on your own!

    I am not sure how many calories you eat in a day but I know that cycling burns a lot of calories. If you do not eat enough your body will go into starvation mode and not shed any fat. You may try adding 200 calories extra a day to your diet and see if the weight starts to come off.

    I am 5'2" and I weigh 210. I know that in order for me to lose weight I need to eat roughly 1800 calories a day because of my cycling.

    Also, you may try eating 5-6 small meals a day.

    I am no expert, this is just my 2 cents.
