Default Critique My Cutting Diet

Since I am switching away from my CKD I am making a new cutting diet for myself. Here is what I was thinking of for my diet and wanted to see if you guys had any comments on it.

This is all based around my BMR and subtracting 1166 calories a day from that to get a target weightloss of 2 lbs a week (4,082 calories = 1 lb of fat so I need to cut 8164 cals a week to lose 2 lbs, or 1166 a day). I am eating around 1.5 grams of protein per LBM, and the rest of the calories are divided between carbs and healthy fats. I think I have a reasonable breakdown right now, but am open to suggestions on a macronutrient ratio scheme (I think the main thing is to just get the neccessary protein and calories though). Right now it is about 40P/30C/30F ratios which is just because I think this is a diet I can follow pretty easily.

Here is a sample diet I made which I will be switching up day to day. All meals are designed so that I am not stacking Fats and Carbs together in one meal. Any critiques on my meal planning would be appreciated also:

#1 Breakfast
6 egg whites
Oatmeal (1/2 cup dry)

#2 Postworkout
Whey Protein (46g protein)
Dextrose (96 gr carb)

#3
8 oz Chicken Breast
1/2 Cup Brown Rice Dry

#4
8 Oz Lean 93/7 Ground Beef
1/2 Cup Brown Rice Dry

#5
Tuna 5oz
Mayo 1 tbsp
Salad
Olive Oil + Vinegar Dressing (2 tbsp)

#6 Latenight Snack
Whey (23 gr)
Flax Oil 1 tbsp

Totals 2611 calories 91g fat/203g carb/244g protein

I will be lifting 4 days a week and doing cardio at least 3 times a week. Planning on doing the cardio on an empty stomach if my schedule allows me to.

Supplements:
Creatine, Glutamine, R-ALA, Sesathin, Cycle Between Clen and EC Stack, BCAA powder, Citrulline Malate, Multivitamins, ZMA
