BTW, been using SPD before this for about a year. Just need something that feels more stable platform with a little more float preferably... (and potentially getting rid of hot foot syndrome when pedaling beyond few hours)
It certainly has nothing to do with your weight, I clip in easily and am 130lbs. If you just got them, get on a trainer and clip in, out, in, out, in, out. They'll get easier, just remember to push FLAT on the pedal, instead on "front then back" like other pedals, turning your foot on the pedal like squishing a bug is a good trick too.
