First off, you need to get a macro nutrient count. You need to find out how many grams of protein, carbohydrates and fat you are taking in.
I doubt you are getting enough protein at all. Not knowing proportions of the food your getting I would say your probably getting in 60-80 grams of protein only. Normally you want to get in at least 1 gram of protein per a pound that you weigh. So you would need at least 110 grams of protein normaly and on a bulk I would say go up to 130-150 depending on how your body responds.
I also can't seem to find which two of your meals make up your pre workout and post workout meal.
45-90 minutes before you workout you want to eat something with protein and slow digesting carbohydrates such as whole wheat bread or oatmeal.
Within 30 minutes of your workout you would want to get in your post workout meal that would be comprised of quick digesting carbs like a ricecake or white rice along with a low fat source of protein.
MAchines aren't that bad, but you'll find out when you move to freeweights that you can't move as much weight as you can on the machines.
For bulking I usually don't think that you should do too much cardio, just enough to keep cardiovascular health up. But at 110 I don't think that its that much of a problem. Any cardio should be on your non weight lifting days and consist of a short run to keep up your stamina through your bulk.
