Can someone start an Aldi’s thread? I’m on Instacart and I keep flipping back here to see what to order! 😂

Honestly I really just want the bread 🤣 other than that cheese

I do feel like it would be helpful to have a list of best items to get per place like Trader joe's/Aldi/Lidl/Kroger/Wegmans/Whole foods/Monoprix/Carrefour/Condis/etc

No Aldi’s where I live😭😭😭

Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods are my places where I do 95% of my shopping.

Gianelli's Hot Italian chicken sausage at Aldi. I'm not sure if every Aldi carries this but its good! When I use to have a hard time getting my Protein in and needed something quick I would buy this. I'd would squeeze out the sausage from the casing, break it up/saute it, then scramble an egg in it. I've also tried their spinach and feta chicken sausages and I personally don't like them, but m aybe its just me. I know they're popular.

My bf went to Aldi this morning because they were all out yesterday and all they had today was the multi seed. It’s something!

I got my hands on a loaf of the zero carb bread the other day and tried making a sandwich with light mayo and deli turkey, but I don't think my stomach agrees with it yet... darn! The same thing happened with low-carb tortillas. I'll try again in a month or so...

I got the variety pack of Magic Spoon cereals last week, and I've tried a couple of bowls since then.

One 1 oz serving plus 4 oz milk comes to about 15g of Protein. The texture is pretty good and crisp, and it holds up pretty well sitting in the milk if you eat slow like I do. Flavor is good but I'm not sure if I'll buy them again as they are a touch too sweet for me. I also can't shake the fact that seems like a 'fake' food, but I think that criticism is a little unfair.. the Protein Shakes I drink every day aren't any more 'real' 🤷‍♀️

Anyways, here's a picture of the frosted variety!

I just saw an ad for it on Facebook, and supposedly a grocery store in my area carries it!

I’m not usually in favor of premature pumpkin spicing, but it’s getting crisp out and this pumpkin pie Greek yogurt is my new Breakfast treat!

Found these this morning online while trying to find tortilla options. Ordered 4 packs of them and am cautiously optimistic!

Look what showed up on my doorstep this morning!!!

So they are only 4 inch tortillas, so pretty much street taco size...but also a great bariatric size. They smell great, but I won't be able to do a taste test until dinner, but am already adjust my dinner planning to be able to include them. Instead of chicken salad in a ramekin, I'll do a couple of wraps. I'm absolutely excited and hope that they taste as good as they look because this will be a game changer.

EDIT:

Okay the little recipe booklet/newsletter that came in the package has given me my new favorite food idea:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
