Yes: 7 months after abdominal hernia repair you should be able to return normal activities, including ab exercises unless otherwise directed by your surgeon. The tissues have healed, and while it will never be as strong as the original, there is typically no prescribed restriction on activities any longer as it won't change your outcomes.
