If you turn Vegan, eating wise, & are strict (no cheating) about it, then you will eventually (if you started overweight-obese) will never be overweight-obese, for as long as maintain being a strict Vegan.

Now that I am eating a lot more processed, salted & sugary Vegan foods*, *- Because revolution for the worst has happen in Vegan eating, When I started it was not Capitalist popular as now, so it was not possible, 30-years ago.
I wonder if I was always wrong, I have always been Vegan thin, genes & always active enough, that hard for me to become overweight-obese,
I leaning towards (with a lot more processed, salted & sugary Vegan foods introduced into one’s way of strictly eating Vegan) would NOT result in overweight-obese Vegans.

What do you readers think?

I am not saying being thin is being healthy enough,

You can be a vegan but make very sugary and unhealthy snacks. You could then consume that and eat more calories than you burn in a day, and over time you would become overweight.

This means it is possible to be an overweight vegan, and as you mention this is also possible with the processed vegan foods that have become available that make it easier to consume more calories than you burn in a day.

That was what I believe, that only when you consume more calories, because of processed, sugary & salty Vegan food, than what exercise one does burns.
