Abdominal exercises will strengthen and tone the muscles in your abdomen, but in order to 'flatten' your belly you will need to do cardiovascular exercise to burn calories and excess fat and trim your waistline. You also need to exercise your lower back, to balance your body's strength; your core (abs and back) support your whole body; if one side is not as strong as the other, you may have posture problems or pain.
Modifying your diet to include more lean sources of protein, fewer 'simple' carbs (white-flour and sugar based foods, a lot of processed foods) and more complex carbohydrates (whole wheat and grain products, oatmeal, brown rice, etc..) and fruits and vegetables will help control your weight and give you the energy you need to get through your workouts. Eat breakfast–it's the best way to jumpstart that metabolism each day!
Be sure to hydrate, also–drinking 1/2 your body weight in ounces of water each day is recommended, but that can be a lot for people who don't like water, so do as much as you can. Soda–even diet–doesn't count towards your water intake, but tea, Crystal Light etc… does. Try to avoid those sports drinks–they are sometimes loaded with calories and sugar.
Most 'experts' recommend 30-40 minutes of moderate cardio exercise 4 - 5 days per week, and 20-30 minutes of strength training (resistance training w/ weights or with your own body weight) three times per week. You don't have to burn yourself out–keep your exercises as varied as you can, and try to cook at home more frequently, rather than eating out for lunch and dinner (and breakfast, for that matter).
Hope that helps–good luck!

Yes they do IF you do them like you're supposed to! Devote about 30 minutes EVERYDAY to doing abdominal workouts, and cute back on foods filled with calories, fats, and sugars. You can eat those things, just maybe not as much as you used to. Be warned, results do not show immediately, it could take months to get to where you want to be. Good luck!
