Crunches alone will not reduce the fat on your stomach. You CANNOT spot reduce fat.

You must incorporate more cardio (at least 30 mins of it) and weight training into your daily routine (like your eliptical) to burn the fat. If you want to lose weight, burning 20 calories a day isn't going to cut it.

Also, eat healthy. Avoid bad fats, sugars, fast food, soft drinks, white breads, etc. Do not skip breakfast as it will speed your metabolism up.

By doing cardio, you will burn the fat everywhere on your body. You can tone your arms up with some weights or yoga exercises.

Here are some exercises to work your triceps (which is probably what you really need to tone):

Also, here's a better workout for your elliptical.

Using manual program, enter workout time as 30 minutes and choose appropriate level
6 Minutes: Set ramps (if option) and resistance levels at medium level. PE=5
2 Minutes: Set ramps at highest level and increase resistance every 30 seconds. PE=6-8
2 Minutes: Lower ramps and resistance to comfortable level. PE=5
6 minutes: Set ramps and resistance to medium and go backwards. PE=5-6
Repeat entire cycle for remaining time
Calories Burned: 250-300 (based on 140 lb person)
