So I think this is pretty good. You have the right portions and the right just about everything.

To me it is a bit on the boring side. Eating just chicken and bacon would drive me nuts so I would really work on diversity - fish - other types of meats - whatever you may like.
Also a lot of your fat is coming from dairy sources now and you might want to mix that us a bit.
Otherwise make sure you enjoy yourself and that you eat enough.

Newbies should not have the wrong impression that percentages are carved in stone. Assuming isocaloric Induction diets, eating 65% fat, 30% protein, 5% carbs does not guarantee better results than eating 67% fat, 7% carbs, 26% protein or 62% fat, 6% carbs, 32% protein.

So don't obsess about getting them exactly 65-5-30.
