I do wish you the greatest of luck! But I don't think you're going to need it. It sounds like your motivation and energy is going to be enough to see you through.
Do rework your plan to include at least most of your exercise. It may only add a couple hundred calories to your total, depending on what form of activity you're doing, but that couple hundred calories will help. The key is to give your body enough calories to fuel it without undereating (starvation mode) or overeating (where you wouldn't lose any weight). If you rework your online plan and it doesn't seem right, come back here and run it by us. We can have an expert look at it for you and give you their opinion.
If you aren't sure how many calories are burned during certain types of exercises, here is a link to fitday.com that might help you:
