I thought I would jump in here and join the conversation. I have been hitting the gym about three or four times a week for nearly two years now, yet I find myself feeling somewhat disappointed with my progress; muscle growth has been incredibly slow. I suspect I have identified the culprit, however, which is likely an insufficient protein intake paired with an excess of carbohydrates.
To give you some context, I weigh about 110 lbs at 5'4", and my primary goal is to build lean muscle mass while reducing body fat, specifically targeting the midsection and hips.
So, here are a few photos for reference:

P.S. My calves are my biggest struggle, as they just refuse to grow no matter what I do.😠
