I have had extreme problems with any abdominal workout because of a ambilical hernia...in May of this year I had it repaired and am now ready to begin strengthening the ab muscles and get in shape...any advice or suggestions on how to get started?

I had my appendix out this year, and I was told to wait 1 month before doing cardio, two months before weight training and three months for abs.
When I did start doing abs I did everything very slowly and carefully, paid really close attention to form, only doing 10 reps per exercise max.
