weightloss - Does this meal plan cover all bases

M-22-188lbs 5'7". So After hitting an all time low (or high) of 30% body fat, I decided its about damn time to stop being a couch potato, and get into some good shape.

I know weight loss is about 80% diet, So thats what I'm looking at right now. Im trying to drop 1.5-2lb/ week, my TDEE calculation pretty much said stick around 1600 calories daily.

basically I've decided to cook up a bunch of boneless/skinless chicken thighs with a little seasoning, roasted vegetables(olive oil+balsamic vinegar) and some tiny potatoes. 2 eggs, and 2 pieces of toast for breakfast) I'm eating right around my caloric allowance(including exercise), but I'm wondering if im missing out on any nutrients for healthy eating?

TL;DR is Eggs, toast, roasted veggies, chicken thighs & potatoes a wholesome diet?

*EDIT: if I'm going through about 6 chicken thighs a day(assuming I'm getting enough daily protein) can I forgo a post workout protein shake? Or is it still advised to get protein in right after a workout? I work nights so I workout at 7am then go almost right to bed. *
