okay:
1) a marathon runner burns 2,500 calories for 2 hours of running : The Olympic Sports that Burn the Most (and Least) Calories – Spry
2) well trained athletes burn around 5-12 calories per minute for high intensity exercises. That doesn't even assume they can keep it up for say an hour :

so saying that 2 hours of high intensity + weights = 1600 that means you are BURNING 13 CALORIES PER MINUTE. That's even more than olympians running at full blast for 60 minutes. So yeah, i may wanna rethink your device.
another study from cal state univeristy. a full on run (10 minute mile) burns 11 calories per minute. Even if you kept that high intensity for an hour (and u don't drop dead!) you burn around 600 calories. Don't forget high intensity works off glucose not free fatty acids - so when you get "low", the aerobic system turns to muscle protein. Chances of losing muscle increases big time during high intensity & cardio (ever wonder why long distance runners are skinny with no muscle?).
So your weight lifting winds up becoming building back the muscle you're losing.
Either way, If you're "burning 1600 calories" in 2 hours - you are on the level of a spartan!

btw: one more thing - this is also not taking into affect the effects of rising cortisol does on your metabolic slowdown of cutting. When you are cutting (and less <20% bf) your body is also fighting you back - high stress and intensity winds up working against you. I suggest taking it a bit 'easy' and fat loss will increase even more. If you hit a 'stall' - you'll know why.
