What kind of exercise bike: upright or recumbent?

I'm 15 years old and i'm having a difficult time figuring out what kind of bike i want to buy. after dieting and exercising for a few years now i started to get varicose veins from running too much on the treadmill. so i stopped running for a while but i knew i still wanted to reach my goal weight so i was wondering which would help me lose weight a lot without putting so much pressure on my legs. i know recumbent and upright are both good but by the looks of the recumbent, something tells me i burn less calories because it looks a little too comfortable.
please, help! is till want to reach my weight of 110 (i'm 5'4).. when lost 15 but then i think i might have like, 5 pounds back and i still want to lose 30 pounds with diet and exercise! i have bad experiences with anorexia..



Answer
I personally prefer recumbent bikes. You still get the exercise without suffering the back, neck, arm and leg pain. It may look easier, but it is very effective. Also, because it doesn't force your weight forward like upright bikes have a tendency to do, it seems that it is easier to stick to it.
