    You can't spot reduce. If you lose weight in time they will also shrink.

    Ok but even if you lose alot of weight you will still have it there just not alot i really just want it completely gone

    OP:
    I lost the love handles after I lost 5% of the starting body weight. I also exercise but like @KorvapuustiPossu has mentioned you can not spot reduce. Just continue your journey, it will eventually decrease.

    Mine helped a bit when I stopped wearing clothes that were too tight. Like I'd have indents there while not wearing clothes, and for a while I'd wear only stretchy clothes or clothes that didn't dig into my sides/leave indentations, and it helped a bit. But the only thing you can REALLY do is lose weight.

    No, not really. If you eat in a caloric deficit to lose fat and do resistance exercise and then transition into building muscle (eating at maintenance or above while continuing with progressive resistance) your love handle problem will go away or shrink a lot. Why sit here and say "I want X but it will never happen"? That's completely self-defeating and I'm not sure why you'd even waste the energy posting about it if you truly thought it was the case.

    You can't spot reduce, it just comes down to lowering your overall BF%
