I also lost 50+ pounds. Most of the weight loss was due to my dietary changes, though. But the increase in riding certainly helped. When I hit the 50 pound weight loss goal last July I rewarded myself with a nice new carbon-framed bike.
It was a pretty good year in this regard.
No kidding

I found that when I'm exercising, without really thinking about it, I desire healthier foods, I don't really feel the need to force me to eat healthier. The reverse also is true: out of shape, out of healthy eating.
