For the nutrition multiplier, Cookwell has a similar approach, only instead it has fixed ingredients for the recipe and the total calories for a batch, then you pick how many servings to divide it. The advantage with your approach is you can multiply rather than divide if you need more, but the Cookwell feature ensures the ingredient amounts always make sense.
I've used this website a lot this past year and will continue to. It's engineered wonderfully and so I thought I'd comment here and say thank you so much. Hope your 2025 is awesome
4:58 LOL Joshy! It looks like you rent the place solely to work in it. A squatter could break in and think, “SCORE! Nobody lives here!” Women rock for turning houses into ~~homes~~ 😎💅 (By the way, the nutrition multiplier is 💯🔥)
I love this guys channel. No click bait, tasty meal ideas, extremely fair pricing, and learns to code. I hope your business and channel blows up. Im gonna signup. Edit: I forgot to mention funny and handsome 😂
You sold me, just signed up. Questions, would you consider adding a “dairy free” checkbox to the recipe index? Wife and kids get the tummy troubles with dairy so it would be killer to presort those recipes out. Thanks man. Love your content.
Its a great deal and I just bought it but I hope you planned this well. If the vast majority of your income comes from the website and not the youtube channel this will be a huge upfront payment but it might dry up in the coming months when compared to the sunscription model. I love what you do and hope it works out for you!
really good stuff! would you ever do more vegetarian recipes? I know its a bit more difficult to try and get the protein in but would be helpful for some I'm sure
This feature is amazing. I did use it yesterday, however, when you click 'print recipe' it defaults to the original recipe. EXAMPLE. The Curried Chicken is is 491 total cals. I adjusted to 392 calories and click print - the print option is back at 491. It would be amazing is this could be fixed. I had already printed all the recipes, so just rewrote the measurments to fit the adjusted calories.
the print version is handled by a different piece of the code and I haven't quite figured out how to build that into the logic yet. I am planning to dive back in here soon after the sale is over so hopefully it is included soon
My ideal website would allow me to adjust the other ingredients based on a change I make to one of the ingredients. Like let me edit the "100 g" part of "100 g cooked rice" and adjust the other ingredients accordingly. As I'd much rather adjust the recipe to what I have than to adjust the nutrition content which may yield awkward amounts of ingredients, say 3/4 of a can of chickpeas...what am I going to do with the leftover. (I am aware I can change the serving size until the quantity of the ingredient fits, but it would be much more convenient). A pet peeve of mine is also recipes that don't order ingredients by when they are to be prepared. But that may just be preference. Actually, for my own recipes I group ingredients by the preparation step. No more looking back and forth between ingredients and the method. I usually don't need the details typed out. But I guess I'm ranting at this point.
maybe someday. I tried last year but the company i hired to help was a complete messed and delivered a terrible product so i just ate the cost and scrapped it. As of now the website functions as a web app so if you put an icon on your home screen it kind of acts the same way
My wife and I are CONSTANTLY utilizing GPT for ratios based on calories/serving. That slider is genuinely the most impressive feature I’ve seen in a while. Good job!
Oh my god. It's your website. Ok good I thought it was someone else's website that you just did a ad for. Anyways I'll watch this entire video because I love sliders
What we don’t see is Josh’s boss standing off camera holding a belt ready to beat Josh if he messes up! Hope you’re safe Josh. P.S - the website is the best
this was a no brainer. i watch your videos all the time, every recipe of yours that i've ever made is great, and this is an amazing deal. thank you so much!!
Hadn't really paid attention to the website, but now I'm a member. The open and honest transparency with your original decision and changing your mind on the subscription model has made the choice an easy one. I get to support someone who has made wonderful recipes and seems to truly care about the products they make.
Love the day few years back when I was recommended your chicken airfryer sandwich. Never owned an airfryer but my research about forever chemicals and how they might be dangerous delivered that video and since then, I've been a huge fan.
I don't get it, are you saying that the discounted yearly payment I just paid automatically had automagically become a one payment for a lifetime subscription without my intention?
sorry for the confusion. yes, anyone who signs up or renewed automatically will be put into the new level which is is indefinite access with no recurring payments
Could you please make it where the printout of the recipes also has the gram weights instead of just the volume measurements? I have to screenshot the recipes instead of just pressing print to keep the gram weights currently
Hey Josh- I just subscribed. I've made around 6-8 of your recipes and they've all been excellent. You've earned my registration, even if there wasn't anything I was getting in return for it. My favorites are the Sweet Chili Noodle Bowl, and Orange Creamcicle Baked Oatmeal.
Love your work Josh! Just bought the membership, looks like some of the recipes with weight loss/weight gain variants don't have the scale attached, hopefully it's not a massive pain to fix. Keep it up!
thanks for your support, there must be a parameter that I missed to include those in the new code. I think i am going to phase all of those versions out soon though since the new slider can handle it on the standard recipe. My vision for V2 of the slider is to make customizations even more available on an ingredient basis
Yes!! What an amazing offer, thank you. My son introduced me to your channel 2yrs ago. We’re both big fans and have spent many hours cooking your recipes together. He’s 18 now and a boss at cooking. I love using a scale to cook and the macro breakdown is 👌. I can’t wait to use the new feature. 🥦 is 0/10 but we eat it regularly now 😂
That's what self-advertisement should look like: highlighting value without BS or pretending to be an actual content 🌟Bonus points for still being entertaining 😎 signed up for membership right away 💪
Love the slider idea, never knew you had a website but $25 one time fee is a no brainer for access to all these recipes! Especially having been a subscriber for so long, always wanted to try to meal prep with these recipes. Excited to try the weekly meal planner and grocery list functionality. Count yourself a new member 😊
wait the recipes all have metric values on them. I actually use metric when i cook so that is what I look at when I remake the recipes but since most users are American I have the imperial on there first. Are you not able to see those on your end?
Josh thanks for what you do just signed up in the nick of time. I've only made a handful in years I hope to make more in the future, thanks for helping us
I spent the money man. You've helped me so with learning to meal prep and the only thing holding me back was that monthly payment. But now It's way more, idk manageable? Whatever thank you for the change and for all the help you've given. (Also got 2 of my friends who love your recipes to buy it so I did my job being an ad)
I just joined as a new member. Thank you. I like with the Adjuster, the Instruction notes change along with the Ingredients. If I'm not mistaken, the only thing that doesn't change when you adjust is the very bottom totals, is that right? (the grand total counts - for the recipe as it is originally written).
Literally thought of this slider last time I was prepping and had bought a pack of chicken that was 2.6 lbs instead of 2. Love your stuff and candidness about the ad. Love the unlimited model as well in a world where everyone is out to entrap people in recurring memberships they forget about.
Honestly, i am surprised you moved to one time fee. $25 seems like a good yearly price for what you provide. I am more than willing to pay that yearly, which is pretty rare for me.
Hey Josh, How long is the sale on for? I have tried 2 of your recepies, and loved it. Unfortunately, being a broke student I wont have money until Jan 10, and wanted to know if the sale would be online by then. Thanks.
The latter but I hesitate to say lifetime because what if I die and no one can update the website lol. So indefinite access, no expiration, one time payment it is.
Amazing Josh - that's super generous of you. I've enjoyed your work for years and have made a few of your recipes (all absolute bangers, by the way). I've just signed up. Can't wait to get stuck in and cooking more.
Just joined. Nit sure how often or how many tmes I am gonna use it. I have been subscribedcto you for a long time now. I just like your no bull-sht guide. Wishing you the best.
Loving your recipes for years man. This new slider looks great, I need to bulk and this will make it so easy to scale the recipes I already love. Cheers!
I cant subscribe right now, but knowing you will have it as a one time fee for 50 bucks for all these great recipes... im definitely becoming a member soon in a month or so. Very good news, love your content and macros dude lol
Big respect teaching yourself a new skill to work on something that you care about! Also it was fun to get that little glimpse into your personal life at the end hahaha
Just got it . Thank you 🙏

A one time fee? Just bought it thanks josh
Yeah lemme go buy. This is incredible
not a member but very cool to see your passion for it, nice work
The ultra rare instance where a company/website makes the correct move by switching from subscriptions to one-time. Much respect 🤝

Quick shout out: I have a bunch of dietary restrictions, but the Meal Prep Manual has still been great and I’ve learned a lot from it
Big brain idea with the slider - definitely never seen anything like it.
Thank you, it probably took me 75-100 hours to figure out how to build it so I am very attached to it hahaha

I’m just trying to clarify here, what else does the membership give other than the slider feature?
full access to the recipe catalog, some planning tools, the slider, and there are 365 mobility practice videos on there as well
this was a no brainer. i watch your videos all the time, every recipe of yours that i've ever made is great, and this is an amazing deal. thank you so much!!
It doesn't even allow me to register and make an account.
