NSV - I have biceps now!

Well, I'm been doing some weight training for the past six weeks or so, but I didn't really expect much out of it. Whenever I've worked out in the past, I never saw any signs of improvement no matter how hard I tried.
Until the other day, when I noticed I had these. They're just little bumps really, and tbh I was really freaked out at first because I couldn't believe I had muscles and I thought I'd injured them somehow and they'd swollen up or something. But they're muscle, I can flex them, I can poke it and it's hard, etc etc

They're tiny, but they're there! And they definitely weren't there before! They're a lot harder to see in this picture. And if I flex my triceps as well, I can feel muscle underneath even if I can't see anything yet.
I can't stop looking in the mirror and flexing them because I never believed this would be possible for me.
