What you're doing now is an excellent base, and it must be done before you can really start adding miles. But, that doesn't change the facts.
A mile of cycling burns approximately 30-40 calories. So, with no changes at all in your diet, your rides are burning, at most, 200 calories. So, you'll need to make more changes in your diet, or add more miles. You need to burn or reduce your caloric intake by 3,500 calories to lose one pound of fat. It will come off in time - be patient!
Keep up the great work! The weight will start to melt off as you increase your level of fitness!
