I think Cynic's got it right. First off, you're not really eating any vegetables (corn is a grain, not a vegetable). That leaves peas, which are pretty healthy but not the best you can pick from the plethora of vegetables out there.

Oatmeal, tuna sandwich, chicken with peas and corn, fish with peas and corn, a ham and swiss sandwich, fish again, 6 inch subways sub (another when I get back from the gym), oatmeal (about twice), and some beef flavored ramen.

You're eating about 3 servings of oatmeal, which is kind of a lot. You're eating two sandwiches as well as two meals of proteins & carbohydrates, and a bowl of fried, over-salted carbohydrates (which I guarantee you will cause you to retain a lot of water). I'd guess you're eating a LOT more calories than you're expending. And probably a lot more than you think you're eating.
Cynic's got it - enter your nutritional data into fitday and see what you're eating. Subway posts all its nutritional info online so you can see what's in a sandwich there. Some are pretty decent choices (like a turkey breast sub on wheat), others aren't (like the meatball sub on white).
