Hi pperlroth,

I hope I'm not comming into this conversation too late. I had much the same experience as you with lots of miles on the bike and not much weight loss. I now realize I had built up a lot of muscle, and of course it weighs more.....

Anyway the thing that seemed to get me burning fat and finally dropping some poundage was adding speed walking/jogging to my schedule. I only did it 3 times a week and in no time the weight started dropping off. It seemed my body had adjusted to the cycling and I needed to rev it up a bit.

I was also dieting 1200 calories a day.

Hope this helps!

Kate
