I wish we had a gym nearby (and by near, I mean within 15 minutes.)

I also wish I could find a hot tub garden nearby.

I wanted to tell you that you have been my inspiration to pay attention to what I'm eating rather than just randomly restricting calories (this is, of course, the dieting I was taught by watching my mom spend her life on a diet. She restricts herself to 900 calories a day because her metabolism is so screwed up from a lifetime of dieting). I like your approach to it as total body and mind health rather than just weight.
