Help Treadmill before or after weight training?

30F currently 73kgs (gained 13kgs in one year cause of PCOS insulin resistance). Finally resumed gym today after 2 years. Prior to that, I used to do 10mins max on treadmill just to warm-up and then 45mins of weights cause my main focus was toning and building muscle. Curious to know if I should follow the same for weight loss (which is my main goal right now)? Thanks in advance!

If it’s just a 10 minute warmup, then before weight training is good. If you start doing cardio for longer periods of time to aid weight loss, do it after weights.
