You're going to hear this often, Brian so be prepared. "Read the book first" Nothing else will substitute. You risk your health and wellbeing if you do not. And lots of "Read the book first" posts
I wont leave you hanging; your list has some problems with it. Protein bars are notoriously high in carbs, regardless of what the packaging says. If they list a sugar alcohol or glycerine then you're getting more than you bargained for carb wise. Besides which, "it just aint natural"
I don't see any vegetalbes on your list. There is a list in DANDR of veggies you should eat every day. Not twice a week. Every single day. 2 servings, in fact. If you do not you'll end up in a sorry state: constipation isnt fun.
So, go finish the book and read the chapter on Induction twice and for some extra help check out the section at the top of every page in orange called "Low Carb Tips"
LC works, but it must be done right.
