15s threshold

5’10, 67kg. Started working out 4 months ago. I lift 5x a week (PPL) and do Zone 2 cardio for 30 minutes on rest days. I eat college dining hall food, so I can’t estimate how much I exactly eat, but it’s roughly around 2500 calories with 140g protein. I eat absolutely clean- no packaged foods, low sodium, grilled meats, veggies, potatoes, greens.

Additionally, I have 5g of creatine and 2x whey protein isolate mixed with water daily. I also have 4+ liters of water everyday.

I know I’m far from my goal of achieving a lean, aesthetic physique, but I feel like my face is way puffier relative to my body. I have tried everything-potassium loading, low sodium etc. but my face doesn’t seem to show definition.

Is there anything else I can do, or a professional I can consult with? I want to try out everything before accepting that it’s genetics.
