Is weightloss possible from riding alone?

My DH. he's lost at least 20 pounds since he became a serious rider. And that includes all the muscle he's built!

He eats ice cream and popcorn many nights a week. When he's not riding, he cannot do that and keep his figure

Mimitabby ~ your posts read 8,888 !!!! Wow! that's nuts !

but anyway, yeah, I've decided that my love affair with cooking and making delicious whole food from scratch is just something that's as integral as my need to be a lean mean riding machine. I guess I just start riding like crazy, and whatever ends up reading on the scale, ends up reading. I know I'll drop at least half this weight, if I keep to my training schedule... I have to!

I have been hiking mornings with doggo for a couple years now, most days, (have slacked off in recent months due to sore feet and hips from weight gain !) and that doesn't seem to do squat for weight loss for me. I guess I was born to ride, so ride I'll have to get serious about. Thanks
