Re the 152, it depends on the size of instructor, the max weight of a 152 is about 750Kg, witha typical empty weight of 530kgs, leaving 220kgs. So its going to be tight.

From a personal comfort viewpoint your own personal bulk will make for an uncomfortable dual flight.

Better go and fly a 172 and forget the 152.
