Why is carrot soup (or any soup for that matter) more filling than a carrot with a glass of water?

When water is consumed separately from carrots, it satisfies thirst and not hunger. However, when it is mixed with carrots (in this case) to make a soup, or any other ingredients, the body processes it like real food.
That's why people who want to lose weight try to eat soup, rather than eating food separately with water because eating soup gives you this feeling of being full, thus making you consume less calories or to eat less during the next meals. Sometimes you don't even feel like eating the main dish or dessert anymore.
Two groups of individuals were tested to prove this study, and it showed that those who were fed with soup before their proper meal, ate less, than those who were given food and a glass of water, before the meal. This is because those who had soup, has satisfied their hunger and felt full.
That is why, most people who want to lose weight are using this soup diet technique to suppress their craving for food.
