- The chopping step when making this weight loss vegetable soup only takes a few minutes. I don’t mind chopping…I actually think it’s very therapeutic. Chopping included, you can have the soup simmering on the stove in about 20 minutes.
- The total calories are calculated in the printable recipe card below. One serving of this delicious soup is under 100 calories! If you left out the olive oil and used nonstick spray, the calorie count would be even less.

Of course, like any soup recipe, you can add your favorite vegetables and leave out what you don’t like. Many recipes include cabbage, which I cannot eat, so I left that out. I don’t include anything from the squash family because those tend to get mushy. Kale seems to be very popular right now, so that would be a good addition.
My “healthy eating” plan consists of having a cup of soup for lunch, along with some fruit. If I feel the need for protein, I add cottage cheese, yogurt, or a slice of turkey. I love to walk outside, so weather permitting, I try to work that into my day as well.
I do know how to eat healthy…in fact I am very good at it. My issue is actually making the choice to eat the healthy food over the not-so-healthy food. That is my constant struggle.
