Starting Weight: 215
Current Weight: 201
Goal Weight: 175

I have a holiday coming up in mid June, of which I would like to have reached the goal by, I want to have a nice tone by then, but dont know whether to keep at the weight loss then start toning exercises when I get down to 180 or start at 190 or even now.

Shall I stick at the cardio and fat loss till I am a lower weight before toning?

    the answer to life is always more squatz.

    it's never to soon to start lifting.

    There is absolutely no reason to wait till you hit a certain weight to start strength training. Just for it- the advantages drown out whatever trivial disadvantages there might be (I can't even think of one legitimate disadvantage)

    I agree with the others. Lifting will aid in weight loss and minimize muscle loss. Don't wait.
