Depends, I wouldn't be able to give suggestions unless I knew how you were eating. But in short calorie restriction, a few days of cardio plus a few days of strength training (a good combination) and you'll most likely lose weight. Cardio is excellent for losing weight and the strength training tones up those muscles/loose skin.
Don't restrict calories too far, if you go way under you won't have energy and it will leave you feeling hungry. Plus going too low puts your body into famine mode where your calories will be stored as fat. Most women can safely lose two pounds a week by doing 1,200 calories a day with 1,500 calories being the maximum (lose one pound a week that way.)
Here's what a 1,200 non-vegan calorie day looks like:

Here's what a vegan 1,500 (still in a caloric restriction) calorie day looks like:
