Welcome first mate. Do you do that routine every single time you are down the gym? Because if you are then I think you are well over working your self doing the same thing over, a little is often better.
The cardio to loose weight you could up. When I dropped most of my weight I was doing
40 mins every day morning cardio. Wake up do 40 mins cardio, which for me was walking to the shops, or the bike. After every gym session 30 mins - 1 hour of cardio after your weights.
Others may offer better advice but its a start mate.
A 3 day split routine is a good one, please look at this post by TH&S mate,
