Looking worse after working out

Hi! I am generally not a forum-type of person, but I am going through something and thought this would be the right place :)

I have never been fat, but I did not used to go to the gym until about a year ago and a half. I was doing pole dancing at the time instead.
I was not athletic by any means, but I looked slim, with a flat stomach and big chest, and could eat pretty much anything without gaining weight.

I was a bit unhappy about my legs and butt as I had a bit of cellulite, so I decided to get into better shape by hitting the gym.
At first I only went to classes for a few months, but then I decided to do more. So I have been following Freeletics bodyweight and supplementing it with weight lifting.

I am 27 years old, I am 165cm (5.4 feet) tall, I weigh 52kg (114 pounds), and have 18% body fat. Despite these numbers looking better than before, I feel like my body has gotten worse!
When I am wearing clothes I am okay with how I look, but I am terribly embarrassed to walk around in a bathing suit.
My belly now sticks out like it is bloated all the time and my butt just got bigger with no positive effects. My breasts also got smaller, which I guess I was expecting, but I thought it would be worth it if everything else looked fine :(

Should I keep going with my training and healthy eating? Is this supposed to happen in the beginning?

Thank you in advance!
