1.)chest and legs seems like alot for one day, why doing both? Most all splits I've seen separate upper body from lower.
2.) warm up only before, 5-10 minutes light cardio. Best to separate your cardio from lifting but if you must, do it afterwards.. be fresh for your weights.
3.) abs mixed in 3 days a week sounds good
4.) diet - items all sound good just wondering if you're able to hit your calorie requirements to gain weight with that.. be sure you're getting the right nutrients at the right time too.. maybe some protein shakes since you don't do chicken or beef.
those are my opinions. . :)
