Actually, HIIT doesn't help you lose the fat, only the longer, slower low intensity stuff does that. (HIIT helps your heart.) You'll burn calories at a high rate but almost no fat. And if you use up all your sugar stores you'll leach fuel from muscles, which is why it is important to train your body to process fat for fuel.
HIIT is important as part of an overall cardio plan. It's really better to only do HIIT once per week and the low stuff the rest of the week.
