Well it has been three days without the exercise bike and I have been eating normally with no weight gain. So I am going to call 170.6 my normal weight and say that 171 was my goal weight.
I really miss the stationary bike and am in the process of researching a new one. Guess I will go with a more expensive model and hope to get more durability. The one I had came with a 5000 mile guarantee, it was in storage almost 10 years, and bit the dust probably with less than 800 miles on it.
So I am thinking of going with one of the old reliable fan type resistance bikes such as the Marcy 1 or the Airdyne by Schwinn. Before I toss out the big bones for the Airdyne I will go ride one in the store somewhere.
I was really scared that my weight would balloon up after the bike died, it still may if I don't get a replacement in soon. After all, Xmas is right around the corner.

while your waiting for a new bike I would suggest doing some walking. It is good to give your body different types of exercise

You might consider looking locally for a used bike, Craigs List and the like. I got one that way in great shape, great features, for an equally great price.

Will look into Craigd.
Walking in my neighborhood requires a bulletproof vest so will pass on that.

Yikes!! I'm sorry, that kinda puts a kibosh on doing walking exercises then. Hmm... is your house big enough to walk around in and do some exercises there? I know when I can I walk my stairs. Good luck to you!

Sonnymac, the bike I found was is a Schwinn recumbant model from around 2005 I think but like brand new. It works on magnetic resistance, is very smooth and quiet, with multiple programmed routines and also the ability to create your own routines on a number of factors/variables and monitor heart rate. Hopefully you can find a good deal a bike that'll suite your needs.

I checked Craigs but decided to go with the Marcy for the full body workout potential. Price was about twice what I paid about 12 years ago for the one that I had.
