Is this a good routine for weightloss?

I used to do weights and cardio on alternating days, but I've decided to do both on the same day. Now, I do around 15-20 minutes of weights (I honestly don't keep track of the time, but it's around there) and 40-45 minutes of intervals on the treadmill (5 minute warmup at 4.0, then alternating intervals at 4.0 and 6.0) every weekday. I also eat healthy and I try to increase my fruit and veggie intake. I've also a vegetarian and I've cut back on dairy products.
I'm 5'6" and I'm around 127-129 pounds and I want to lose around 5 or so pounds. Of course I've recently switched to doing cardio and weights everyday just a few days ago. And for those of you around my weight/height, how long until you saw visual results?

You make no mention of calorie intake. No routine will work if your diet isn't where it should be..0

Here's a good routine for weight loss:
1. Eat at a calorie deficit.

Are you tracking your food?
When you say weights, what are you actually doing? Machines? Isolation exercises? Compound barbell work?0
