Hi Binky. I have 2 suggestions you might consider.

1) Upper body: Largest muscles get worked first. You would do Back or chest, then shoulders, then biceps and triceps. You can mix up your routine, but always the smaller muscles go last.

2) You need your most energy for weight training, you also release some fat during weight training which if followed by cardio will get burned off. Point-- it makes more sense to do cardio after weight training. Some people just refuse to do it this way, it's not a deal breaker....do whatever keeps you going.

I wish much success.
