Am I just a fatass or is soup like Chinese food? I eat it and an hour later I'm hungry again. Thoughts, opinions, comments or concerns?

I love soup but...

You may not be eating enough hot out of the oven biscuits with lots'o butter with it or the bowl might not be big enough. I love soup- the original winter food.
As a fatass myself, I understand but there are some hearty soups out there that'll fill up a glutton like you or me.
No concerns here - I love soup. Made a big pot of beefy onion noodle with bacon the other day... mmm, mmm , mmm!
This.
I make my own version of Pasta Fagioli that includes 3lbs of hot Italian sausage....... Totally unlike the kind that Olive Garden serves.
My favorite soup is the kind that comes with a steak, baked potato, and veggies.
The trick is bread. It kills me to say that because this time last month I was almost three weeks into a wheat free diet.
I've had the same experience as you with soup before.
I've decided not to make soup the one item in my meal and then expect it to fill me up for a long time. Now that I set my expectations properly, I no longer feel like soup owes me anything more than the temporary enjoyment of how good it tastes.
One thing I've noticed as I get older is I no longer like the thick cream based soups and chowders like I used to. A clear broth based soup is what I now prefer. Something light with veggies and pepper.

And hold the soup, tater, and veggies. When i eat steak that’s all i want. A two inch thick ribeye cold in the middle is more than enough to stuff me to the gills.
Yep, the best soups are always homemade. I don’t know if chicken and dumplings would be considered soup but i hope it would. Same for chicken and rice. As much as i love both i’m on the starch wagon these days so maybe once or twice a year for either.

Kibble, milkbones, and P Basses. And redheads.
Depends on the soup. If it's mostly broth, yeah. But a good heartyy soup, especially with some good bread, with last.
