Core exercises burn very little calories compared to big compound lifts such as squat/dead (which also activate the core by the way) - or aerobics.
As the above poster said, you cannot choose where fat comes off from.
Do yourself a favour and read the fat loss for noobs sticky thread in the fat loss forum

As said, squats and deads work the core very well. If you really wanna lose fat, you gotta build total over all muscle, do the cardio (HIIT works well for most), and most importanly, get the diet in check. Best of luck!Originally Posted by SuffolkPunch

I do not want to become stronger, faster, or better. I want to become the strongest, the fastest, and the best.
Someone once told me not to bite off more than I could chew. I said I would rather choke on greatness than nibble on mediocrity.

Standing compound lifts, cardio, and plate pushaways.
