    So I guess this means if we eat what a gorilla eats, we'd get as buff as them? Seems legit.

    whey is a milk product, therefore not part of a vegan diet.

    That said, essentially to gain any noticable amount of muscle you will need a caloric surplus (eating above maintenance calories) and would want adequate protein doesnt matter the source.

    And heavy lifting with very little to no cardio.

    OP wants to be leaner, lose weight and gain muscle.

    Your suggestion looks like is for bulking.

    Lose weight=calorie deficit

    Gain muscle=calorie surplus

    So OP ain't doing both at the same time.
