How important is it to stay within 'fat burning range'?

My local gym, fitness first, provides figures. For me for example, i would need to stay within 130 heart beats a sec to be in fat burning range. For me to do this it feels like im not doing much at all and barely feel any sweat. However when if i give it some pelt, my heart beat can reach 160/170 easily and it is then that is start sweating. However this is in 'High tensity - cardio range'.

I need to loose weight. what would be best for me? And how important are these 2 ranges?
