This ****s gay, Havent took pics yet, but my left chest has always been a bit
bigger than my right even before lifting... But now that Im lifting
its becoming more noticable, the right one grows just not as
fast as the left... How can I resolve this ?

Muscle wise yes....
When I flex my chest you can see its muscle not fat that makes
it appear bigger...
The only thing I can think of is my right arm is stronger than my left,
so when my left arm gives out my left chest muscle picks up for the slack...
But then again like I said, it was already bigger before I even lifted weights...

it is certainly muscle imbalance, either your left tricep or your right pec but probably both. I would say all you can do is stick to dumbells for chest moves and only do single arm tricep moves. do the weak one first and go to failure then do the strong one and only go to the same amount of reps. this should give your weak one a better work out and hopefully it will catch up.

This guy makes the most sense so far. This is a common issue and should easily be corrected at your level. Just don't do extra sets or anything crazy like that on the weak side. Stick to unilateral (only one side at a time) exercises for upper body.
Should correct itself in no time if you are working out consistently and eating right.
