You have to build a little muscle before you can lose the fat! I swear!

If you are not happy with the results that you have been getting though, i might suggest a different work out routine. it sounds like you might have the resistance up really high on your bike... try lowering the resistance level and go for endurance rather than strength. remeber; " fewer reps but more weight= bigger muscles but more reps with less weight = more definition but good job none-the-less, exercise is important!
