Unfortunately, there is no quick fix.
I hated being on the depo shot, it really messed up my hormone balance and i did find it hard to lose weight while on it. talk to your doctor about an alternative form of birth control - there are plenty of newer pills that are supposed to have les side effects.
The next thing to do is to realize that you can't wait to enjoy life when you are at your desired size or shape - enjoy it now - birthdays and anniversaries and special events are meant to be happy events. Let go of being self-conscious and focus instead on the event and the people involved. Your husband will be happy because you are there and you are happy, not because of your shape.
Lovehandles are excess bodyfat - this can be addressed by proper eating and regualr exercise - pick a program from freetrainers and get started!
