Advice on cutting(?)

Hello, first time poster here. I started working out and dieting around 2 months ago or so. I’ve been in a calorie deficit and lifting heavy while on an upper/lower split 4x weekly.

The scale has gone down. Started at ~190lbs and currently around ~175lbs I use MacroFactor to track and manage my macro targets. I’ve noticed a difference in weight obviously, but I’m not sure if I’m getting stronger/bigger? Workouts usually shows 1-2 lifts gaining a small % but not all of them.

5’11” height, eating 1500-1600cals, 149 protein daily.

I guess my main question being, is what I’m currently doing okay? Should I change anything? I was very out of shape before this, and recently took up running, and work outside 3x weekly. Sorry if it’s hard to understand I’m very ignorant in this topic.

Tattoo rec / wisdom

Hello all, not sure if allowed but I wanted to come on here and see if any artists or previous clients could help with tattoo information.

I’m looking into Anubis with a scale theme. My main questions are: should I wait until I’m done with my losing weight / gym journey until I have a better body? Do tattoos “change” with size? (Sorry if stupid, it would be my first tattoo)
- what would cost be like? I was thinking upper arm or back.
-any thoughts or ideas on the topic at all?

Thank you all! Happy Tuesday everyone stay safe 🫶🏻
