I've found its easier to mentally separate them. Calorie restriction for weight loss, and cardio strictly for ... cardiovascular health.

It doesn't make much sense, unless you have the time and stamina to do it for the required duration and intensity (for me, weight loss happens only with an hour a day lap swimming non-stop).
