As for fat loss take this into consideration, you should do at least 30 min of something that keeps your heart rate at a raised level for that amount of time. So, instead of running 1.5 miles before and after, why don't you try running 3 miles in the evening, but again don't be so wound up in distance as in what shape you are describing your in, you should be able to run 3 miles in 25 min or less, so do not judge your cardio portion on distance so much as you should time. Shoot for at least 30 min of continuous moving, keep track of your diet, and keep workin hard. Your results will come, hope some of this helps.
