But when I was younger, these girls that I was hanging around with all decided to go on a veggie diet. We were on it for about four years together! Never lost so much weight in my life!

I have actually discovered that I get more protein then i need, when I try to track my diet. So I do not quit understand how people have trouble getting enough.

Their muscle fibers might be fast twitch, since they need to execute bursts of speed. The long muscle fibers are supported by the vegetarian diet well. This means runners' and swimmers' muscles, long like the gazelle, would also function well with a vegetarian diet. On the other hand, I wonder if people with bulkier muscles, not built for speed but for force, ar supported as effectively by the same diet. Mountain gorillas and orangutans, who eat meat rarely, have a bulkier musculature, but also spend more time lounging. Could it be that the vegetarian diet results in the need for more rest in those with bulkier muscles? Hmmmmm.....
