Do you really think that they consume as much calories as meat eaters?

Calories in Steak

Foods highest in Calories in Pork Products

Calories in Chicken, Breast, Meat Only

Calories in Chicken, Drumstick

Calories in a Shrimp - Shrimp Calories

Heres some information on calories in meat for comparison.
Fat and Protein fill someone up more and make them satisfied - in the long run, they eat less because of it. Whereas a diet of just fruits and vegetables will raise someones blood sugar and increase insulin production making them unsatisfied and want to splurge any chance they get. I'm all too familiar with high carb diets as I used to follow one and was nothing short of miserable.
