It would be practically impossible to lose weight just with exercise alone. An average person weighing 145 lbs. would need to perform a total of 17,500 sit-ups in order to burn a pound of fat which is equivalent to 3500 calories. This is why doctors recommend combining diet and exercise.

How many calories burned in a sit up?
Ok, that stuff was junk. You burn about .2 calories per sit-up for the average person. So in other words, 10 sit-ups burns 2 calories. If you're looking to lose weight, I suggest jogging, walking or running. Again based on the average weight and height 1000 sit-ups is equivalent to jogging, running, or walking from around 2.5 to 3.5 mi. for the average person. Pick your poison. DO one of them for 17.5 days eating around the recommended amount of calories per day, and viola, you have lost a pound, though it also helps to switch out some foods, like eat an apple instead of a candy bar, trade in 2% milk for skim, eat vegetables to your meal, grill rather than fry. All these things will help. directly @topic: .2 calories

How many sit ups does it take to burn 340 calories?
When it comes to burning calories, how hard and for how long is much more important than what you do. Pretty much all activities that gives you the same increase in heart rate for the same time will burn the same amount of calories. Now, it can be a bit difficult to get a good burn going doing sit-ups only, as most people won't have enough upper body endurance to keep doing it fast and long. And it's dependent on weight, gender, age, fitness level etc. But let's say you can do sit-ups at a pace that gets you about as sweaty and winded as if doing aerobics, then you'd need something like 30-45 minutes of continuous sit-ups to burn around 300 calories.
