I once had a 1.5 mile commute. Even though I didn't go hard and didn't have any real hills, I found that after a few months, my waistline had decreased and I had gained five pounds. I assume those were "good" pounds. I felt stronger. And when I was at work, I had my bike with me, so sometimes I would ride my bike to lunch.
