My problem with this for me is I'm not sure I can get to where I want to be with the current vegan diet. And I don't really want to come off the vegan diet because I'm feeling really good right about now.
However, most vegan that work out are pretty scrawny looking. But to get buff, I'm going to have to cut out a lot of the higher fat foods I'm currently engulfing in order to get below 10%. I'm probably going to have to make a compromise and start sucking in a Whey based protein supplement in order to try and make it work as the pure Vegan ones are so goddamn expensive and you have to eat so freaking much of it to equal what you are outputting in terms of a workout. I'm already eating everything I can get my hands on.
I'm not sure it can be done on a realistic basis.
And, to tell you the truth, I feel pretty scrawny when I'm at 180 or below. You don't wrestle grizzly bears on the side of mountains weighing 180.
