There is a bad myth behind being vegan. The word on veganism that non vegans believe is that you cannot sustain a muscular body on a vegan diet. It is just impossible because there is not enough protein in plant based foods. You need to eat lots of meat and dairy to build strong lean muscles. I have heard it all before. You lose weight and get weak on a vegan diet. Whether you are a meat eater or vegan you will be in bad shape if you don't eat clean natural nutritious foods. You can class yourself as being vegan and live on potato chips and soda. It will be no healthier than a meat eater living on hot dogs and hamburgers.
