I think you would get burned out quickly doing a full body and cardio every work-out.

I ment alternating cardio days with total body days

I'm not really trying to cut now so I don't do a lot of cardio, but I have been doing a very basic total body three day a week for about a month. Even without cardio I have noticed a decrease in my waist size. The key is to keep the workout intense and use strict slow movements. I went to this workout as a change of pace and even though its very basic if you keep it intense and use strict movements I think you may be surprised with your results.
Squats* 2 x 15
Pullovers* 2 x 12
Bench presses 2 x 15
Standing barbell presses 2 x 10
Barbell rows 2 x 10
Standing barbell curls 2 x 10
Deadlifts 2 x 15
Crunches 4 x 20
*Perform squats and pullovers a superset.

Why do cardio? Or an aerobics workout of any kind? When performing a strictly aerobic workout, the body burns calories only during the duration of the activity. However, a high intemsity strength training program and a sensible diet will allow you to burn daily at least 50 cal. per each of pound of lean muscle that you build.

cardio will help you burn fat, esp with intervals
