As has been stated on here numerous times, the egulation of your diet along with a well-structured exercise regime is the way to go.
You've already signed up to the website, maybe set up a weights regime? Not only cardio exercise burns fat, weights training does it as well and you don't need to use weights to get massive muscles, slightly toning them will make a world of difference to how you feel and look.

At the end of the day, if you take on more calories per day than you burn, you'll not lose weight so you need to balance a good healthy diet with your chosen exercise.

Nothing worth having comes easy. I'm afraid if you want "instant results" you're in for a total failure. It took some time to put the extra weight on, and it'll take some time to get it off. Get a free program from this site, and definitely look into the diet forums.
