Getting in shape

Hi, I'm brand new to this group. I have a question that I bet someone can shed some light on.

I've been riding since the 1st of June, everyday. I started with 5 miles for the first 3 weeks. I then increased to 8-10 miles daily. I've improved my nutrition and eating habits greatly. I'm a 40 year old guy who needs to get back in shape and loose about 20 lbs. I used to play hockey 3+ times a week but change in job/finances have haulted that. I have a Trek 7000 Hybrid and riding is great! The old days of jogging/running are over.

Here's the deal. I have not noticed any weight loss or "beltline" change at all. Am I being impatient?
Any suggestions, experience, comments, or words of encouragement are greatly appreciated. I'm guessing "drink lots of water" may be the common suggestion.

Have a great day!
