I don't know anything about exercise equipment and i saw on the local ad that someone is selling this. A Schwinn exercise bike.
*So my question is, would this help me lose weight?*
Some people are telling me to save my money and just go running. Confused, anything helps!!

There are a number of things you can do, but diet is one of the first things to change(if you haven't already) exercise about 30 min a day maybe 3 times a week, you don't want to burn yourself out. You need cardio, but bikes are good, they are very effective in spinning classes. You can look up exercises for bikes, i see them all the time.

Well.. I think both are good! But use your leg muscles which burn must calories. I personally like the elliptical because it makes me bust a sweat fast!

elliptical is better because it works more of your body. running is great, but weather is something to consider with running. I like dance dvds, plus they don't cost much. really though, the most effective thing is what you will actually do constantly. have fun:-)

Would only help if you are going very long distances or very fast or hard resistance. I have lost some weight doing insanity the video work outs and using my tired mill and elliptical.

The best exercise is the one you get up and DO. no equip will help if it's used as a clothes rack and most will help if used regularly. For great weight loss also do regular weight training

Weight trainings good, ellipticals are good, just walking is good, etc.
Try some new things and see what you like.
