Hello All -

This is a dumb question - does drinking tomato soup count as a liquid or does it count as a meal.....I have such a horrible time figuring soups out.

Thanks :-)

i count it as both. it has calories so i count it as a meal/snack, and it's liquid.

You can have soup ... then the veggies... Cauliflower is virtually low-no calorie food. Soup will pass from the pouch very quickly.

When I eat soup - I drink the liquid - then eat the solids.

Thanks for your answer. I needed to know as well. Should I drink broth off other soups first then eat goodies for nutrition?

I do... but I don't eat most carbs in soup: no potatoes, noodles, or other high carbs items... (take them out and discard), ...

i eat it all together, but 2.5 years out i still don't usually feel hunger and eat only when i'm supposed to (for the most part!). But i make all my own soups, and usually fill them up with meat and cheese. my most recent favorite is homemade tomato soup with ground beef and shredded mozzarella.

It depends if you drink it out of a mug or it's in a bowl and you use a spoon...
Lol sorry I couldn't resist
