    There is no specific diet or exercise that will remove love handles. Love handles are fat and you can't spot reduce fat. Losing fat is going to reduce your love handles. Doing a form of strength training or weight lifting will help with body composition, so as you lose weight it's mostly fat.

    Fat loss comes from a calorie deficit, not from specific meals or foods. When you signed up for this site you picked a goal, whether it was maintain weight or lose weight. That set up your calorie goal. If your picture is fairly recent I would suggest making sure your goal is either half a pound per week or one pound per week, more than that is very aggressive and harder to stick to.

    Eating protein can help you feel full and retain muscle. Fats are important for hormones and metabolism. Carbs are great for energy, plus they have fiber to help you feel full.
