Isnt running better for weight loss than working out?

I've been working out for 30-40 mins a day and running for 20-30 mins a day after for 2 mths 5 days a week.

Ive lost 10 lbs from 220 to 210.
Im much stronger and tighter.
What else could i do to lose more weight besides diet?

Ps i have been eating what i want but smaller portions.

Not usually. Lifting heavy weights tends to burn more total calories then running an equal amount of time. But your diet should be the main reason you are losing weight. The heavy lifting and running should be to make you stronger and be able to do every day things easier.
