You CANNOT spot reduce. It's not happening. You have to do whole body workouts to change anything.

I have the same problem and I do an AWESOME workout for it every day....
Grab a dumbbell, at least probably 5-8lbs and place it in your left hand and let your arm rest at your side. place your right hand behind your head, and then bend to your right, almost as if you are trying to get your elbow to touch your side. then bend to the left as far as letting the dumbbell become parallel with your left knee. Start out doing a few reps of 12-15. Then switch the weight to ur right hand and do the same thing for the other side. You should start to see results in 2-3 weeks if u do this about 5 days a week. It only takes like 7min!

yoga stretches and positions burn fat quickly..also doing crunches..but when u are coming up to do the crunch dont go straight..go towards your side this will burn the fat on the sides of your stomach if you do it right.

Running will get rid of it. I had the same problem and my peronal trainer told me to run, and it worked!!

Stop eating like a pig and run a good mile or so everyday. Its that simple. Next question.
