crunches will not lose body fat or weight. aerobic exercise such as running will reduce body fat. it takes 3500 calories to make a pound of fat. reduce your intake by 500 a day/7days = 3500. With exercise, you should lose a pound a week. p.s crunches or resistance work will only tone the muscle but fat will stil be over it.

How long does it take to see a difference while walking to lose weigh?

3500 calories in a pound of fat if you were about 140 pounds walking an hour a day would burn 225 calories. It would take you 2 weeks to lose a pound. if i was you and trying to lose weight i would probably do this routine cut 500 calories from your diet (a pound a week of loss) jog for 30 minutes (255 calories) jump rope for 10 minutes ( 106 calories) ride a bike for 30 minutes (254 calories) 50 crunches ( just to shape up a bit because they burn baaarely any calories like 8 a minute.) From cutting a few calories and working out you would lose 2.2 pounds a week. instead of half a pound. (: so basically answering your original question, it would take a while to see any improvements from just walking.
