type of training for wight loss

gania13

hi,
i've been doing sports and being in a caloric deficit for about two months now,
started 80 kg, now i weigh about 75 kg.
my training is a combination of focus T25, insanity max 30, and just walking outside for 40 minutes.
i feel my progress is very slow, maybe because most of my fat is stored in my belly
and it's hard to see change in that area.
my question is, what would be better for weight loss, continuing what i've been doing,
as in training in an aerobic fashion, or doing weight lifting?
i'm asking because i have a heart rate monitor, and in the aerobic type i burn usually about
300-350 calories in a session, but weightlifting burns alot less, something like 150-200.
also, if i'll be weightlifting and still be in a pretty substantial caloric deficit, because for now
my main goal is to lose weight, won't it hurt me in any way? because i think i won't really built any muscle,
i will just look a little bigger because the muscles will be pumped and tense after lifting.

sorry for the long post, and thanks for any help.

5 kg/11 pounds in two months is excellent progress! Do a mix of cardio and strength training. If you're brand new to lifting you may gain a tiny bit of muscle, but it is short lived. However, lifting is very important in retaining muscle mass as you lose.
