Weight resisted crunches on an inclined sit up board. Stay away from sit ups as they are not good for your back. I am a former amateur boxing champion and this method that I have practiced for over 10 years when in training camp never failed at me having rock-solid 6-pack abs by fight week. (within 8 weeks).
You begin by cradling a barbell weight on your chest. You can start on the floor. Begin with about 5 lbs. Perform crunches until you begin reaching muscle failure. Rest, then repeat again. After the first week, begin performing crunches on an inclined sit-up board. Incrementally, increase weight and incline as the exercises become easier for you to handle. (When your abs don't burn as badly anymore, you know it's time to move up in weight.) You said you are in shape now, so you should be good to go within 8 weeks. (You should be at 25 lbs. by week 8.) Those gimmicks on tv never worked for me.
Women also have stronger abdominal muscles than men so this should be even easier for you.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Sit ups and crunches. Pilates is also good.

The problem I had was my body tended to store all of my fat in my stomach and that I got fatigued really easily when working on them. I was able to get through it by switching to cardio-type exersises and doing the exersises every day at the end of my workout (as opposed to just on chest day like I was). I also went on a two week low fat diet. If you're like me and already work out a lot it shouldn't take much. I was told by several trainers that the best thing is just to switch it up as much as possible and keep it regular. If you're using machines, go less weight and try to rip out 50 of them as fast as possible. Then switch to another machine, go heavy, and finally finish with some low-tech crunches. The second day, go in a different order, or do two heavy, or two quick, etc.. You know you're doing good if you feel a burn and it hurts to cough the next day. :-)
