First of all, sit ups DO help :D not trying to go against your mother or anything but I have been into exercises for over 2 years and Sit Up is one of the best way to reduce the fat around your stomach. I have seen result on my own body in less than a week. REsult that is noticable. I dont know if it's just me because I developed this thing where I just know so accurately even if I lost or gained little weight however the point is, it will work if you do it right as mentioned below from others.

You need to eat a healthy diet because sit ups use lot of muscle around your abdominal area and quadriceps. Also eating whole bunch just stretches out your stomach so it is very hard to reduce the size of it in the long run.

So if you think you are not eating healthy or eating lot of amount you have to tie down and start doing that right. Eat the right portion. If you are doing that right, then you are half way there.

Second step is to know your limits. Don't kill yourself from doing that because it can hurt your back if you do it too far as well as knock the wind out of you almost (from personal experience). If you are new at it, start off slow by doing 25-30 or even 10 if you are not so great at it. I had to start from 1 because I was out of shape 2 years ago. Then gradually increase the amount by week. Or even days if you feel like you are up for it.

Then slowly increase it up to 200 sit ups. I know it sounds a lot so you can divide that up to 4 sets of 50 sit ups.

Also when you get good at that, add some weight by using 3 pound dumbell on each side of your hand. Or exercise ball things.

hope this helped :D

They don't help if you don't do proper steps with them, such as eating right and getting excersize.

If you were to eat better and do NUMEROUS (I'm talking alot here) sit ups/crunches/whatever and excersize, you should see SOME result. Mind you, it's alot of work.
