This was what I was looking at. You have triceps in there before back, shoulders and chest. You of course can do however you want.

I am doing bench to work the chest first.. I normally superset with calf extensions.
Or is Bench Press more arms than chest. The chest is what I want to grow the most, to take up some extra skin.

That would be a fine superset. Bench press is chest, but imagine if you work your arms to exhaustion and then attempt that bench press. Your chest could handle lots more weight, but your arms couldn't at that point, therefore you would not be working your chest at it's maximum ability.

I normally do the fly machine last and can still do 3x110lbs so thats pretty good, more than I started with thats for sure. Even after the rest of the workout.

Fly machine doesn't have much to do with triceps or biceps. But if you ever feel any pain in your shoulders while doing them, stop the set. I messed up my shoulder pretty bad on Pec-dec.

I really know very little about lifting weights.. and am kind of sad to hear im not going to gain muscle while losing weight, disappoints me for sure.

Well there are those who disagree with that. I know personally people who gain strength and mass while cutting. So just do what you have to do, and work hard and see what happens.
You're doing great.
