Your results from that type of toning exercise will be the sort that you will notice but that others may not. it will be light toning of the areas involved so long as you keep up your current levels of cardio activity.
If you are looking to tone the tum can recommend something much more effective instead of sit ups...
Lie on the floor with your arms flat and out to the sides for stability. Bend your knees and lift both legs off the floor so that the lower half of your legs are parallel to the floor and forming a right angle with the upper half of your legs.
Keeping the left leg in that position slowly straighten and lower your right leg so that your heel almost touches the floor but not quite and then slowly bring it back into the start position. Repeat with the left leg.
Start of doing 3 sets of 5 repetions. (Unless you already have super abs it will prob be all you can manage at the moment) and build up. You'll fel it not only in the normal ab area that sit ups target but also the deep abdominal muscles and the higher ones that go up to your ribcage.
