I’ve been working out for about 4 months now (HIIT on a spin bike and a bit of weightlifting ~20 mins.) three times a week. I’m seeing good improvement in health and physique despite having no idea what I’m doing.
My motivator was calories, but now when I work out I burn way less calories because my body is getting used to the stress, I think. What’s happening? Is my workout less useful than before? Can I not eat as much or is my body burning more fuel now?

If your goal is fat loss, you may see some benefit to mixing in some longer sessions at lower intensity. Like hiking or cycling.
Your body is likely adapting quickly to the intense challenges you are putting it through, especially if you are a beginner.
