Thanks for your post Espi - great example of what I'm slowly learning - be smart, don't train harder than you're willing to eat / recover. Weights can be fun and a part of the program, but 6 days of weights / HIIT will kill ya' unless you massively refeed. Move a lot every day, even if it SEEMS like it's so low in intensity that you couldn't possibly be burning cals - you ARE burning cals! And don't work so hard in the gym that you sit for 24-48 hours afterwards cuz you're too tired to lift a finger.
Of course in bad weather, my answer to this is often to walk around the mall - my wallet is suffering
