Exerise Equipment

I need an opionon here.

I would like to buy either an elyptical or a home gym type piece of work out equipment but not sure which one would be better for me to buy. I dont have time at the moment to go to the gym and it would be more convienant to be able to get some exercise at home.

I'm not looking to become a body builder or have a crazy muscular body, my main goal is just to lose weight which makes me think elyptical for cardio. But on the other hand if I start doing a semi liquid diet with 2-3 small meals it might be better for home gym since I may lose weight faster then normal.

Anyone have advise here?
