Would an exercise bike work for me?

I want to lose weight and am already following a controlled and healthy diet, but I want to try a new exercise regime. In the past, I have bought and used various exercise tapes, a treadmill, a rowing-machine, and a cross-trainer. But I gave up on each one and sold them, mainly because they didn’t work for me (and I found them boring). I’m not really a fan of the gym or swimming either, which is why I’m looking at exercise bikes.

I want to lose weight from my belly, hips, bum, and legs. I also want to tone my legs, bum, and arms. I know an exercise bike won’t do anything for my belly and arms, but will it target the other areas and help me lose weight/tone? I want to lose weight and tone up, without bulking up in muscle. Would an exercise bike make me bulk up?

If you can, please recommend some useful weight loss workouts for my belly (that could go alongside a exercise bike workout). Toning workouts for my arms, legs, and bum would also be great.

I am only looking at exercise bikes because I’ve tried other things and feel like this is my last option. I want something I can do at home – which an exercise bike would do. But I don’t want to waste money (again) on something that I might not use or may not work for me…
I’m a girl, if that makes any difference… "/
