How to Eat Soup and Lose Weight on Weight Watchers
As someone who is at WW Lifetime and maintaining a 100 pound weight loss, I’m a big fan of using soups (especially zero point ones) to help you lose weight and keep it off.
I make a batch of soup on the weekends (this WW turkey chili or WW vegetarian chili are probably the ones I make most often) and eat it for my lunches during the week.
Soup and chili are quick, easy, and filling and for zero points, I still have plenty of points left for the rest of the day.
Research has shown that eating soup can help with weight loss because it’s filling and hydrating. Soup can also help you feel more full for a longer period of time which makes it a winner in my book.
These soups also freeze well, making them perfect for weight loss meal prep.
You’ll love this quick dump and go recipe for a busy weeknight. You can even put all the ingredients in your crock pot in the morning and come home to this wonderful meal. What could be easier?

Weight Watchers Easy Taco Soup Recipe – Step by Step with Photos
Here’s how to make this delicious, filling WW Taco Soup in either in the Instant Pot or on the stove top.
Gather your ingredients. If desired, add a packet of taco seasoning mix. This adds great extra flavor but quite a bit of additional sodium. The spice from the Rotel tomatoes might be enough for you in this recipe.
Combine all ingredients in Instant Pot or in pot on stove top. Chicken may still be frozen. Drain beans and corn. Do not drain tomatoes.
Once cooked, remove chicken and shred or chop. Add back to soup.
Dig in and enjoy this delicious soup.
Serve with plain, non-fat Greek yogurt (a great zero point sour cream replacement), baked tortilla chips or Good Thins corn ones, lime, or low-fat shredded cheddar cheese.
