I have seen that pure vegan bodybuilding is indeed possible..

There is a light-heavyweight local competitor named Lemuel Israel that comes into the local Max Muscle. He is a true vegan, and has an incredible physique, almost looks like a lightweight version of Robbie Robinson. He's quite a character, and has dreadlocks like a rastafarian. His wife cooks all his meals, and he eats no animal products at all. Guys who work out with him tell me he is abnormally strong. I will have to grill him on what he eats to gain this size and strength. I would guesstimate him at 5'8", about 210 lbs, 19" arms, 28" waist. 5%-6% bf. Stays in contest shape year round.

It may be possible, but I would have trouble doing it. I can't even discipline myself to eliminate red meat from my diet.
