A combination of Weights and HIIT type interval running would be better.

High intensity Interval Training =HIIT

Weight training and cardio exercise go together. The weights help you to even burn more calories and continue to do so even while sleeping!
Of course you have to have a healthy diet to go with it.

Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.
