WHAT IS THE SOUP DIET? HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT WITH SOUP DIET?
First of all, it is useful to know that there are many models of the soup diet. However, in general, the features in the soup diet are based on one-to-one foundations.
Since most of the soup is made up of liquids, it is quite filling, takes up a lot of space in the stomach and does not actually digest very quickly. It is not boring and monotonous as you can get many different soups from many different ingredients. It can be used alone as a main meal replacement with a good ingredient. But is it enough to build an entire diet on soup alone? The answer to this question may vary depending on your purpose, so you can examine the soup diet models and apply the one that suits you.
Soup-only diet:
In this diet model, soup is consumed instead of 3 main meals. When you follow this diet that contains a high amount of liquid, you have a low chance of experiencing a problem with hunger or thirst. However, considering that the soup diet will remain poor in protein, it is useful not to do it for more than 3-5 days. If you are in a process where you want to lose weight quickly in a short time, it can be used as a small shock diet. It should not be forgotten that in order for this weight loss to be permanent, it is necessary to pay attention to healthy nutrition in the ongoing process.
As an example menu;
Morning: 1 bowl of vegetable soup
snack: 1 portion of fruit
Noon: 1 bowl of vegetable soup
afternoon: 1 glass of milk/yogurt
Evening: 1 bowl of legume soup
Diet with soup in 2 main meals:
In this diet, breakfast is usually made as usual, and soup is consumed at lunch and dinner. Since it contains more protein than a diet containing only soup, it can be done for a longer time and there will be no hunger problems again. We can also say that it is quite healthy, especially if you prefer cheese and eggs for breakfast, which are both filling and contain high protein. In particular, soups containing more protein compared to other soups should be preferred ‘generally seasoned ones’.
As an example menu;
Morning: Vegetable omelette prepared with 3 eggs
snack: 1 portion of fruit
Noon: 1 bowl of vegetable soup
afternoon: 1 glass of milk/yogurt
Evening: 1 bowl of vegetable soup
Diet in which only soup is consumed in a single main meal:
In this model, which can be applied for a much longer time and is more satisfying + healthy than others, you need to consume 1 main meal loaded with protein. It is a more uniform model in terms of both fiber, fluid and protein/carbohydrate stability.
As an example menu;
Morning: 1 bowl of yogurt + 1-2 tablespoons of oatmeal + 1 portion of fruit
snack: 2 walnuts
Noon: Baked, grilled or boiled meat/chicken/fish in the size of 4-5 meatballs
afternoon: 1 glass of milk/yogurt + 1 portion of fruit
Evening: 1 bowl of vegetable soup
If you are on a soup diet, you will need several different and satisfying soup definitions that can replace the main meal. Here are a few definitions of soups that are a little more nutritious and more bioavailable than our classic flavors.
