Here is a short video of me explaining some of my favorite workouts for fat loss. As a rule of thumb, try to limit the total amount of cardio that you perform to 3-4 times a week so that you can progress with your strength training routine. I recommend trying any of these cardio routines for at least 4-6 weeks.
Video:
Low Intensity Workout
Duration: 30-40 minutes
Equipment: Treadmill
Warm up: Brisk Walk for 5 minutes at an Incline (Increase incline to 5%)
Workout: Brisk Walk for 20 minutes at an Incline (Increase incline to 10-12%)
Cool Down: Brisk Walk for 5 minutes at an Incline (Lower incline to 5%)
High Intensity Workout

Equipment: Treadmill
Warm up: Brisk Walk (5-6km/h) or jog (7km/h) for 5 minutes
