IMO and experience, you won't lose very much weight at all cycling twice a week for, say an hour or two a day. 95% of your weight loss depends on what you eat. I know, I tried. Rode 5 times a week some weeks, but hardly changed my eating. i would lose maybe 5 lbs in 3 months, which all came back as soon as i cut back on my cycling.

Eat fewer calories to lose weight. Cycle for health and well being.
