What to do, what to do?

The Bag Lady is not into exercise. What do you mean; that's obvious!
She occasionally takes a spin on her stationary bike, but doesn't have an elliptical machine, a treadmill, or a gym membership. She does, of course, do a lot of walking, and a little gardening, and sometimes some heavy lifting.

In the cold weather to come, she knows she will be inside more often, and tends to go into hibernation mode because she hates the cold so much. She will go outside every day and feed her cows, but that is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a strenuous workout. She will sweep snow off her deck, or shovel it off her little sidewalk (if you can call three feet of sidewalk blocks a sidewalk!), and she will chop wood and carry it into the house to feed the woodstove.

She has decided she needs to find something to help her lose some weight. She has lost a teensy tiny amount this summer (the same 2 or 3 very sticky pounds - everytime she thinks she has shaken them, they reappear!) but she is loathe to go back onto a starvation diet as she has in the past, because obviously, they don't work well in the long-term. She has been watching her diet if she doesn't watch what she puts in her mouth, she slops it all over herself! and it seems to be helping a little, but she is afraid that with the cold weather and the slow-down in her activity level, those sticky little pounds will invite some buddies over to stay!

She is making a vow to do some sort of exercise on a regular basis, starting after she gets her garden taken off and all her canning done. Canning may not be demanding exercise, but it is time-consuming and tiring. She needs to get back to doing yoga, or jumping jacks or something.

Any suggestions?
