First- Sit-ups are not an "Ab-Specific" exercise. Essentially they work the hip flexor muscles. Try this experiment:
-Stand up and hold onto something for support
-Lift up one of your legs and hold your lower stomach as you do this with your free hand
- Notice you feel no contraction in the lower stomach but rather a pull even lower than the abs. Those are the hip flexors contracting because that is their natural movement.
Crunches are the best Ab specific exercise. But you can all the crunches that you want- If your diet is not spot on- you will see no abs at all.

yes yes yes.
it will .
`if you notice a slight difference, continue doing this.
`if you see the difference you want to see, only do about 10 a day or if you notice it starting to get pudgy again
`if you notice a dramatic change, either stop or only raise it by 2-5.
:) hope i helped!

you should raise it up only by five every week. it will only work if you continue it every night. i tried to do this but i kept on forgetting. my freind does pushups and curlups every night and she has a really flat stomach. don't laugh, but yoga is a good way to lose weight and feel more comfortable with your body. you can get a how tro do yoga in barnes and nobles or borders.

yes it should. to get a better stomach, do it in reps. like do the first 5 really slow, the next 5 increase the pace juss a tiny bit, not fast, & then go back & forth between that.
-hope that helped!♥
