A recent study showed that women who had a bowl of soup 20 minutes before their entree lost more weight than women who did not with no other changes in their diet. The reason was that the soup took the edge off their hunger so they at less at the meal. It takes about 20 minutes -- that's the magic number -- for your brain to receive the message from your tummy that you're full.
Clear soups are better than heavy calorie laden cream soups. You don't need all that extra fat. Hot soups have to be sipped slowly, which is another reason that cup of soup helps you lose weight faster.
Check labels to stay under 100 calories a serving and choose lower sodium soups as well.
