Too bad you can't get both. Any variation in your exercises (up the reps, shorter rest periods between sets) will raise your metabolism and you will burn more. I would personally go with the bike. Less stress on your joints.
Keep changing and keep your body guessing, it will burn off. When you get your bike, look up bike exercises, you will find a ton of sets that will include doing "sprints" on your bike (stationary and regular bike). You will do fine!
Good luck, you can do it!
:)

Dont get the gazelle! We had it and when we moved we left it. We didnt even try to sell it, give it away, or even donate that scrap metal to some unfortunate family that would be left with the GIANT (even when it is folded) dust collector. It doesnt even catch dust that well due to its tubular design.
If it is between the two, I would get the bike. I really like those elliptical machines. They're pretty big, and I'm not sure about the prices. Good luck.
I just realized that amidst all my complaining, I didnt put why I didnt like the gazelle. It's a free swinging machine. Even when weighted, there is no resistance. It just feels like your swinging for however long you are working out for. You dont really feel like you're getting a workout. Hope this helps.

I dont really like exercise bike as it will only toned down your leg and not whole body. Btw, I dont know what is tony little gazelle edge.. but if it's helps to burn down calories and toned down your whole body, why not?

i'd go for the bike. it's a bit more familiar. you'd know what to expect from a bike. where as the gazelle kind of seems like a cheesy info-mercial kind of thing.
