hazel - I'm also very interested in the before/after calorie burn. Right now I run between 2200-2300 with a sedentary office job. On the weekends it's closer to 2500 with yardwork and kid chasing and whatnot. The other part is that I just did a "mostly" weaning for my 10 month old but we'll still be nursing in the mornings sometimes and on the weekends, and the GWF doesn't track those calories so that will also most likely create a small deficit.
So the general concensus so far (with 2 people hehe) is the HIIT would be too much. That's kinda what I thought. I was just hoping that with a rest week every couple weeks it might be a difference but who knows. Although, since I now have a treadmill, maybe instead of a rest week I could just to HIIT from home those days, which is doable, I just can't make it to the gym those days. That almost sounds like a better plan instead of skipping weeks.
