If you're doing 0-500 sit-ups a day, that's obviously overkilling. There's no point in giving it your all for a week and then giving up. The key to any sports training is regularity.
More importantly, it won't help you lose the fat that most people hide in their abdominal muscles. Everyone has abs, but for them to be visible, the body fat index must be lowered to around 15%:
Reducing body fat requires time (months) and investment (daily monitoring of your diet).
So it's not forever. Even though your muscles swell from crunches and you strengthen them by dieting, once you stop following a proper diet, those muscles return to an invisible state. Once you start eating normally again, most of the fat will be stored in your abdominal area.
At the very end of the spectrum are Japanese sumo wrestlers who have very strong bellies but actively add a lot of fat on top.
In short, weight training alone won't give you noticeable abs, let alone for a week.
