Well, if you weighed 150 lbs, and did them for 30 minutes daily (all at once so that you got your heart rate going), you'd burn about 360 calories. There are 3500 calories in a pound of fat. So, doing the math, it would take you almost 10 days to lose a pound. Not really worth it per se, but you WOULD lose, and you'd tone up somewhat. To check out some other activities against your own weight, go here, scroll to the bottom, and enter your info. Then look at each activity...the calories burned will be calculated for you. Good luck!

You can do jumping jacks, but you need more of a routine than jumping jacks. Do some ab work, glute work, and toning with 2, 3, and 5 lbs dumbbells.
You can also try jumping rope.

You can only lose weight if you eat less than you burn. So doing jumping jacks will help by making you burn more, but only as long as you're not eating too much.

If you want to look like a fool. Ha ha! you're on the right track though, you need to burn off calories and if jumping jacks are it for you, then so be it. Eat sensibly and exercise.

I've lost 5 kilos in my first week. It's my 10th day and I have included salad with some protein (eg. egg/ lean chicken) as you suggested. After 4 years of trying, the fat is finally coming off. It truly feels like magic!
Get started today!

Sure. Exercise is exercise, and if you don't use it as an excuse to start eating more, then you should lose weight.
