I don't know if anyone has noticed (nor if I had mentioned it specifically) but I really haven't exercised regularly for the past
I have found though, that since I reached within 20 pounds of my goal my weight loss has slowed to an unacceptable speed for me. I've been in the 160s since mid-December and that is just too long.
If I want to reach my goal in this lifetime, something has to give and I guess it's me and I guess I need to give some effort to physical activity.
With all the talk of Lent and giving something up, I choose to add something in... EXERCISE. I walked 51 minutes on my treadmill today (at 3 mph). (51 minutes is the length of an episode of The Splendid Table.) I have definite plans for a walk at lunch tomorrow during my Master Gardener Class and square dancing on Friday. My husband will be thrilled if I suggest bike riding (or some other activity) this weekend. My goal is to do some form of PA for the next 40 days (at least).
I really do want to get down to 153.5 sooner rather than later.

Gardening is definitely exercise, so by walking, you're doing all the good! :)
Keep up the great work, Robin! Let me know when all of your energy kicks in from exercising regularly. That is what I enjoy about it!
What an awesome, awesome goal! :) Brilliant!
Last year, that was what I did for Lent as well...added exercise. It is such a good thing! Go girl!
Good for you!
Go Robin!! Last year our priest recommended "doing something" for Lent as opposed to "giving up something" as a way of seeing it a more positive experience. Exercise is a great choice - I may join you.
