You're doing awesome Jane! When looking back in my own spreadsheets I saw to have the best of luck with fat loss when I mimicked UD2.0 for a bit, with the difference of it only having 1 depletion workout, not 2 and a bit more calories on that day as well.

Depletion workouts already take such a long time to do that many sets that even from that point of view, machines are preferable.
Hey, there's a reason why there are that many machines in gyms and why gym owners (here at least) don't give newbies free wt exercise routines.. efficiency is key here.. the faster people move in & out of a gym, the more people can be members.
The more people get burnt out on working out on machines, w/o giving up their membership, the easier it is.. (memberships typically run for 1 year sometimes even longer).
