It might a little..if you breathed hard and sporadically. Kinda like laughing and the hiccups, both slightly work the abdominals.  |

I don't know for sure, but I imagine that while it won't help you lose the weight, it might help tone your tummy muscles. But that is just a guess.  |

i don't think it effects all that much... singing isn't like a good workout... it's like breathing... if you breath and breath and breath sure it's great for your lungs... but it's not as effective as exersizing...  |

the only thing that makes you lose weight is taking in less calories than you expend. Everything you do burns calories-- from sleeping to standing to running. Any activity that causes you to burn more calories than normal will make you lose weight. Singing is a very moderate activity, so I suspect that any impact it would have on your weight would be minimal. As for building muscles in your tummy-- it takes more than breathing exercises to build stomach muscles.  |

I think I have heard that before, but i dont think you should use it as a daily excersize and rely on it to loose hella weight. But i think it might a little ... ~Hereisanameforyou  |

Well..Since you can't eat while you're singing, it COULD help you to lose weight. Maybe every time I think of food I will start singing instead of eating. It would probably drive my hubby up the wall though.  Wahoo!..Two birds with one stone!..Lose weight and drive hubby bananas!  |
