The picture is kind of wide, and a bit blurry. Can you get a picture of her head-on?
 
They dont really look sunken in the pic, is the urate (white bit of poo) actually white or mostly so? if so its not dehydrated, some chams are shy nd wont drink while your watching. You could give her a good shower/misting for a few minutes if your concerned.
Cute Lizard. :)

Ok so had time to look at her latest poo and is very white on top with some brown on bottom.So,that would be good right?
 
Yes thats a normal poo. The white part is called urate (solid wee wee), if its white or mostly so it indicates your lizard is currently getting enough water.
If that part begins to be yellow/orange this means its not drinking/getting enough moisture* (they also get some moisture from gutloaded insect food and sometimes munching plant matter).

If there is no other concern, all is well. Well done for being observant, thatys the very best way to notice quickly if something is not quite right, before it becomes a big problem.

Your cham will love you. :)
