Have you checked out the new Keto items Aldi has been stocking their shelves with? Great foods such as high protein/low carb Greek yogurts and high protein/low carb ice cream (yes please!) should perk your interest. If you’re still hankering for a sandwich BUT refuse to have a slice of any bread, Aldi has these healthy, delicious low carb wraps to make you smile.
Hubs and I are having no trouble sticking to our Keto-like, high protein-low carb diets. We limit our carbs to no more than 50 grams per day during the week and splurge on the weekends (Saturday and Sunday only) to a 150 gram per day limit. Basically, with just a little fine tuning and some delicious perks from Aldi, we’ve been doing AOK.
Now, this I can do!
We both have lost a few pounds BUT what’s even better and more important, is that we have lost inches. Especially around our middle (guilty!) I feel a lot better about myself. I find I have a bit more energy and I think better of myself because I’m doing something that I can do! Plus, thanks to the low prices at Aldi, this Keto-like diet is affordable! Hopefully I can be on this diet for the rest of my life!
Here are just some of the foods we’ve been eating this past week:
Read your labels. Start making decisions based on carb count. Not calorie count. When you start to restrict your carbs, something magical happens. Yup, you lose weight; you lose inches and you gain confidence.
Good luck!
Keto diet for life!

I tried your advice today. I had a peanut butter bread. It was euphoric. Can I be addicted to bread if it had tasted this good?

HI Mignon. I just looked up the Keto Peanut Butter Bread recipe. It looks super yummy and I am def going to make it. You can use Almond Butter also, if you are allergic to peanuts (as my husband is). Here’s the recipe for our readers: https://www.today.com/recipes/keto-peanut-butter-bread-recipe-t154308
Thanks for the heads up. I am very, very happy being on this diet, which has now turned into a new way of life. And its so wonderful to have hubby on board. We shop & cook together.
Thanks again, Mignon. And yes! one can get addicted to bread if it tastes that good!

My daughter is a Keto-er. I am more aware of carbs through her good training. Yay for both you and me for getting in healthier shape.

Hi Leslie. Doesn’t it feel good? To be doing something that gets us healthier and in better shape? Literally? Now when I eat too many carbs I can feel my body swell up. My face feels bloated. It’s NOT a nice feeling.
Who knew?
Thanks for your comment.
