Cycling has definatley changed the shape of my body. My legs are thinner and leaner looking, I have way more core strength, and my arms got thinner. I've dropped 4 dress sizes since June.
Personally, I would stay away from the canned vegetables. Try replacing them with frozen vegs. One tip that's been working for me is making sure at meal times two thirds of the plate is vegetables and the remaining one third protein. Using a smaller plate also helps with portion control.
Good luck in your journey.
