Well I would try and get the best of both worlds with the cardio conditioning. Obviously you need to focus on endurance, however increasing your VO2 Max is important as well. So I would think of working with both HIIT and steady state for your conditioning.
As far as fat loss just watch your caloric intake. Make sure you are getting enough calories to not encourage holding or leptin kicking in. So watch to see if you are losing to fast or notice you LBM decreasing, if so you may need to kick up the calories a little bit.
