Unhappy Just started an already have a question

Today is day one for me on the Atkins program.
I did all my research yesterday and even went shopping. I put together food for today and just want to check and see if I have the right idea.

Breakfast:
2 boiled eggs and 3oz streaky bacon

snack:
0.5 cup cucumber and 1oz cream cheese

Lunch:
1 cup lettuce, 0.5 cup cucumber, 7 oz (raw weight) diced cooked chicken and 1.5 table spoons mayonaise

snack:
2.5oz tuna in olive oil

Dinner:
Meatballs - 6oz (raw weight) ground beef, 0.5 egg and 0.5 cup zucchini

snack:
20 olives and 2 oz edam cheese

This comes to a total of 1542 calories - 61% fat, 36% proteins and 3% carbs (16 grams)

As a former low-fat calorie counter, the fat amount obviously scares me.
Is it about right?
Is there anything I should add or take away?
