I used to be in very good shape. Then I went to college, started drinking beer.. then started drinking more beer... and I managed to go from a 140lb freshman to 200lbs when I graduated. In high school I was a water polo player and also went to the gym every day, and I'm getting back into it now.
I begin my workout with a mile on the treadmill (which I hope to increase to 3 miles over the next month), followed by weight training. How many reps should I be doing? I remember hearing that high reps are good for weight loss, so I've been doing sets of 20, but now I'm wondering if that's too much. Bearing in mind I am happy with how strong I am (somehow, all that beer and I have still retained all of my strength, so much for use it or lose it) and really just want to tone myself up and lose the dad bod. Any advice?

The most important thing is to concentrate on form. Make sure you have good posture still before working out, otherwise you will destroy your shoulders and will only hit your muscles sub-optimally.
Weights for muscle and cardio for fat loss. Dont attempt to use weights for removing fat. It is not near to being optimal.
Instead of running do HIIT with a jump rope. 1 minues as fast as you can with a 1 minute break. Repeat 10x. And modify as necessary.
Do not neglect your core.

Use light weight and focus on contractions.
This focus all your muscle to grow.
