How to Start Meal Prepping (Beginner’s Guide) | Joanna Soh

[@motivating-rosy429]

This was the only video I found that properly explained everything and gave good advice, thank you!

[@Ghost3210]

Now that is what I call an *Beginner* guide. Informative, yet simple and easy. And yes, that is actually quite an hard thing ... can't count how often I have seen beginner cooking videos with recipes that already needed special cooking knowledge or beginner workouts that even average fit people would find insane. XD Also her fashion sense is awesome :)

[@joannasohofficial]

Xarazoth haha! Yes, this is super easy and EVERYBODY can cook. I hope it’ll get you to start cooking and meal prepping too. 😉

[@1cathexis]

I consider this video to be maybe the best you've ever done. The advice is direct, practical, and do-able. Your presentation was clear, engaging, and presented with lots of energy. At the start of this summer, my MD told me to lose 16# by my October app't. I have made that goal and I found meal prepping and calorie counting was essential to success. I also got a lot of use out of buying a decent, not expensive food scale to measure my proteins and carbs to stay within my target goals. At this stage I don't much care about proportions, just total calories. My future goals are too ramp up my exercise program (partially so I can eat more!) in order to begin moving some body fat into muscle mass. I firmly believe that maintaining mental acuity, avoiding obesity, and retaining both some muscle mass & joint strength and flexibility are pretty much the formula for health. You are appreciated. Thank you so much.

[@joannasohofficial]

Andrew Perash thank you so much for sharing your journey. You’re on a very exciting journey of working on yourself and being at your best state. I know your story and experience will inspire those around you. Keep it strong! 😉

[@1cathexis]

I'm touched by your personal response. Thanks!

[@SopranoMusings]

I'm a newbie to meal prep and I can't thank you enough for explaining the process to us step by step. Feeling super confident in my new 4 day meal prep plan!

[@Gvf77x]

Part of what makes Joanna so memorable is her accent, it's so unique and it makes me remember all the advice she gives.

[@joannasohofficial]

Gvf77x yes, the accent. 😝 I hope the tips are usuful too!

[@aemjay7225]

Never felt this proud of our Malaysian accent😇👍

[@kainataurangzeb906]

Absolutely correct she’s so clam and direct to what we need to do.

[@mariasaranti5168]

I was always afraid of the idea of meal prep. And planning what you eat ahead plays a major role into losing or maintaining your weight. Thank you so much for sharing this....it really helps a lot!

[@cr061289]

I wish I had this video when I first started meal prepping a year ago. I love how everything you mentioned are things I learned along the way since I started meal prepping. This will make things so much easier for beginners! :D

[@SharonKarkara25]

I'm glad you start at the beginning again. I do good one week then get lazy again. I need to start over often. This helps. Thank you!

[@raghad6716]

THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO I FOUND !!!! LITERALLY WALKED ME THROUGH IT ALL THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@michellewright99]

This is such a good video. The explanations and examples for each component really help me to see how I can create a plan that works for me using foods I like and avoid common issues like soggy food or becoming overwhelmed. Thanks!

[@tempozolo4656]

Now last step You forgot how to stop people in my house from eatingmy food i prepared

[@joannasohofficial]

Tempo Zolo hahaha!! Because your food is too yummy? 😝 that’s a good thing.

[@fowziabarre8764]

Tempo Zolo lol I know right

[@khadrajibriil8341]

Lol 😂😂

[@nomandlambanjwa38]

Lol happens to me too

[@LifeOfTheParty323]

Tell them you spat on it and may or may not have a disease.

[@lll3388]

I found you years ago and I watched you but I wasn’t ready to start my healthy lifestyle and now that I’m actually committed, I’m back you watching you. I’m determined ! I don’t know how to cook so thank you so this video

[@asadorama]

same here!! good luck to the both of us ^^

[@ivannaivanova8542]

I absolutely love how organized you are! Huge thanks! I was taking notes while watching this video :)

[@GraveRave]

This is one of if not the best and reassuring videos on meal prep, that I've seen on KZbin!

[@fatalradius]

Thank you very much. You don't understand how many videos I've seen where no one explains how and how long to properly store your meal prep. Thank you!

[@sirinedjaballah2060]

I HAVE BEEN TRYIING FOR YEARS this is the best video thank you

[@marianacastro9016]

Hello Joanna! I just want to thank you for your videos and the support you send us thru them. I have struggled with my weight and self-steem always but things complicated more when I moved to Canada. As student, I am finding difficult to sustain or rework these habits, and discipline myself while keeping my budget and doing my work at University. I miss home, my mom's food and how easy it was in México to get delicious, fresh and cheaper food! But all your videos have inspired me, made me aware of this Essential and somehow challenging labor that is taking care and love and nourish ourselves, and moreover do something about it while keeping it healthy with our life and mind. Well, I guess I will just repeat I am so happy and grateful to you for being here!!! I will try my best ;) Thanks!

[@lockey13yuuya86]

All the questions I could think about meal prep were all answered in detail. Been following you for months now, I'd love to do it too but can't right now. I'll just save the video first. Thanks!

[@evelinecarolinelienhuaming1184]

I Love Your Mature Voice, Beautiful Outfit & Food Knowledge, Stay Awesome Ms.Joanna 💙💚💛💜💟💖💗💝💕💞

[@belleealalala]

I actually plan out my meals for the entire day before having breakfast. I find it a good way to track my calorie intake and avoid impulse snacking.

[@sav4114]

By watching random videos , I saw one of your's fitness video and since then i am watching all your videos. Thank you so much for your motivational videos... Also I really like the way you keep yourself simple yet elegant.

[@inthiramsheela4256]

Yeah me too.. just randomly workout video browsing and came across her.. love love her too

[@corneliusallen1777]

Nice background music 🎶. I going to start doing more meal prep, cause when I don't, I always result in eating junk foods from the restaurants. I usually cook more like vegetable soups, beans to last me all week or bake chicken with vegetables. The difference I need is to have them all ready to just grab and go, rather than taking it out of different containers losing my time. Thanks!

[@athenaflanagan6306]

Oh my goodness gracious, I adore your top!

[@venusceniza5999]

All the things I wanted to be clarified about on meal prepping are in this content! Thank you!

[@callmehsylvia9912]

Thank you for teaching and sharing your knowledge. I’ll start my meal prep tomorrow.

[@sofiazee]

This is very helpful! I love how you provide examples on what you do for yourself. My biggest enemy is the need (desire?) for variety + just started learning to cook, it has become so mind boggling that I've given up so many times! Watching your video gives me the motivation to pick up cooking again 💪 thank you so much ☺

[@elainelangeles4099]

I really like your meal prep tips, so very helpful in controlling what we eat. Not doing mEal prep really does time consuming in my daily routine, cannot even focus on work even at homE because we are always thinking on what to prepare on the next meal especially now we're on quarantine and every member of the family is always looking forward on What you prepare.

[@jaanuAnil8994]

Hey beautiful Joanna! Just wondering if u can do a video on “rest days”.. i haven’t seen any on ur channel and was thinking if u have any ideas on what to do and if u do any exercises on that day or just chill..?

[@judithdubouzet3202]

thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and practice of healthy eating and lifestyle

[@Daemon1995_]

overall good tips but how long should you wait after cooking food to store them in the fridge?

[@ibmuzic]

Legit the most helpful video!! Thank you!!

[@dianepithers4859]

Hi Joanna, Yours is the first food prep video I have watched, and found it brilliant. But I have a question. You say stove top reheating is best, but how do you actually DO that? Steam it over a pan of water maybe? I can’t think how.....many thanks

[@marieberry2463]

While I was listening to her, half of my mind was just wondering where she got that cute top 😭😭 I want one ._.

[@meykhou5823]

Agree!

[@paulaCvenecia]

😂😂😂 ... Me too

[@samiharahman894]

So simple really

[@fw1490]

Hi thank you for this video 😊 I would like to ask, are we should completely wait for the food to completely cool down before store in fridge?

[@bigjoy0122]

Very helpful for us beginners! ❤ Thank you for sharing!

[@jessehuang8616]

Hihi thank you for this beneficial video! Can I ask for reheating at stove top, do u mean pour out and heat the food in the pan on stove?

[@paulamugabi7320]

U have a wonderful speaking voice.

[@herminesaul4231]

That's basically what I'm already doing while living in the dorms. I'm too lazy to cook every single day and don't always have time either, so I prepare food for 2-4 days. Prepping is time and energy efficent. You would spen about as much time and energy cooking smaller amount of food. But meal prepping won't work, if you prepare food for many people....

[@joannasohofficial]

Hermine Saul it’s so true! I started learning to cook for myself when i moved out and lived on my own. Meal prepping makes it more efficient. 🙂
