Is this soup too high in carb/calories for weightloss?

500g bag carrots, couple big parsnips, couple sweet potatoes, 2 stock cubes. (plus herbs and chilli). Blended to a thick soup.

I've had a really big bowl, maybe 1/3.

Its got to be better than my usual giant bag of crisps and takeaway! But is it actually very high carbs?

One meal means nothing. You need to take a day or week overview.

Carbs are irrelevant really, it's the calories that matter for weight loss.

Put the information into my fitness pal to calculate the calories & macros you're interested in.

It's certainly going to have a much better profile of micronutrients than crisps & takeaway. I think you'll probably want to add some protein for your next portion.
