The same way you lose fat on any other part of your body: Healthy eating and exercise.
You cant target speficic areas for fat loss. your body doesnt work that way. It burns fat throughout, regardless of what exercise you do.

My ideas? Try to do 200 minutes of cardio a week. Remember fat does not turn into muscle, so you need to lose your fat while putting on muscle. Work hard, but don't over 60 minutes at a time. Do planks and other abs exercises on alternate days.
On training days, do 5-10 minutes of cardio to warm up, then do your weight training. Do 30 to 60 minutes more of cardio, then go home.
The best time to eat is just after your workout within an hour when your metabolism is raging. For your muscles, incorporate some isolated soy protein or whey protein. Whey is more potent but the soy tastes better!
Don't look at your scale as the be all and end all, but get a measuring tape to check your progress, and that will show more tangible results.
Read magazines like Shape, Womens Fitness, Fitness, etc to get tips and to stay motivated.
Good luck and stick at it. This plan has lost me 20 lbs in 12 weeks so far, just go for it!

the only way to lose love handles is to lose weight allover. You cannot "spot reduce".
Do lots of cardio and burn more calories than you consume.

A healthy diet and plenty of exercise. Start walking or jogging.
