Pics: One month, can't figure if I achieve anything

Options
Hi all
Been lifting one month and deficit cal for a few months. Some days it feel that it's working, some days like today I don't :(

Plz have a look and be honest, if I need to lower my cal or raise workout - I better hear it now than later.
Thanx!

    Your stomach looks flatter and your waist is more defined.

    I've seen some personal trainers on these boards state that when you start a new exercise program it can take 2-3 months to really start seeing effects visually, so maybe keep that in mind.

    Are you measuring yourself with a tape measure once a month too? Do you take side/back pictures (instead of only front ones)? Those things might help you get a clearer picture of what is happening with your body.

    I do measure, only few sm from waist went away, more from arms. Weight is almost same, that's why i m feeling down sometimes

    But ya all comments sure do help! Thank u for input!
