Not for me – I never lost any weight, I had these for a few months and nothing not 1kg off. I started with 2 a day a was hungry still, no sugar cravings but by dinner time I was eating a bigger meal cause I was so hungry. I tried adding berries and different fruit but still didn't work. I wasn't very big to start with but found I need to try something else, I reduce my current weight. Show details

Awesome product – I started using these shakes after hearing about Jackie’s story. I’ve tried many shakes and Aldi’s tick all boxes on price, taste and satiety. They don’t upset my stomach like other whey based ones do, nor do they have artificial sweetners. They keep me full, I have energy and feel better mentally. I’m not concerned with the higher carb load as… Read more

it’s fructose. The body processes fructose differently. I’ve bought a portable ninja so can have a creamy shake when I’m on the road working. Seeing results 7.8kg down since 1 March. Reached first target of 54kg. 4kg to go. It’s a huge thumbs up for me. Thankyou Aldi. An update 3/8. Lost another 3.2kg and almost there. I’m very happy with this product. An update 3/9. I reached my target of 48kg as I’m short so this is my healthy weight. I’ve lost total of 15kg and I’ll keep using the Aldi shakes for one meal on maintenance. Very grateful to Aldi. These shakes have kept me satiated, curbed the sweet cravings and provided ongoing energy and improvement in mental health at an affordable cost.

A little too sweet – I had put on around 5kilos after Cancer treatment & for over 4years have been battling to get the weight off, finally I tried the Aldi shakes chocolate & strawberry & they have started to work losing 1kilo in the first week my only problem is I find them very sweet is there anyway of decreasing the sweetness.

No more migraines! – Absolutely LOVE these shakes especially the chocolate flavour. I've found that not only am I less hungry, I don't get migraines anymore! I'm mentally sharp all throughout the work day at the office since I've drank this shake for breakfast & dinner... Highly Recommend! Show details

Taste is great but very high in carbs – I have only had one so far and I think the taste is much better than the [Brand Removed] and the [Brand Removed] . However I was a bit concerned about weight loss when the Aldi is very high in carbs and sugar and lower in protein than the others. Eg Aldi Protein 18.2 g Bondi 30g Cole’s 30.2 g Aldi Carbs 25.2 g Bondi 2.6 g Coles 2.4 Aldi Sugars… Read more

23.4 Bondi less than 0.1 Coles 1.7 Because I don’t eat fast food or many sweets and eat a whole food diet but regardless cannot shift 5 to 6 kilos whenever I do I want to reduce carbs and increase protein. I would love to stick with Aldi as they are so delicious but I think the sugar and carbs may delay my weight loss progress. I would value any other opinions on this.

My favourite chocolate meal replacement shake – I have tried a variety of brands of meal replacements but can't go past the Aldi brand for the chocolate and vanilla. They shake well (I don't get lumps like I do with some other brands) and they are tasty and filling. I also like the fact that this shake is rich in calcium (one shake contains 50% of recommended daily requirements for calcium).… Read more

And this is important for someone on the wrong side of menopause.

It is a shame our local Aldi's seems to rarely have any flavours on the shelf except for coffee. And that is the downside with Aldi - supply is not as reliable as it is with other brands.

Old formula was amazing, new formula is awful – The 2 star review is for the new formula. I’d give the old formula a 5 star though. I’m so disappointed with the new formula for the chocolate flavour. The old formula was my absolutely favourite meal replacement shake, I always have a hard time finding meal replacement and protein shakes that don’t taste gross and this one was my absolutely… Read more

favourite. I had it once or twice almost every week on the days I didn’t have time for breakfast but the new formula is not only not as good as the old one, it’s honestly disgusting, it’s thick and syrupy and no longer tastes like chocolate. Please go back to the old formula, I don’t understand why anyone thought it was a good idea to change it.

I don't like the new formula – I have used the chocolate flavour for a couple of years and really enjoyed the unique, nearly Milo flavour. The recent change is now more powdery, is difficult to fully mix in a shaker and has a thick, gluggy texture. Please go back to the previous chocolate formula. Show details

Easy to drink! – Have had this sitting in the cupboard for a few months and thought I’d try it. Who decides just before Christmas is a good time to try and loose weight?! … me! Well blended with 200mls cold fridge water and a few ice cubes in the NutriBullet and it was delicious. Disappointing to read the formulas may have changed, so will see how they taste when… Read more

I purchase another chocolate one. Also have vanilla and coffee to try so will report back on those in the days to come.

It does the job – I needed to lose weight and stop being hungry all the time. I tried the chocolate and coffee shakes to help stave off my hunger. I find their flavour not as appealing as other brands but still ok. I’m lactose intolerant so I use water instead of skim milk. I did try lactose free skim milk but it gives me bad tummy pains and I have to rush to the… Read more

toilet within 15 minutes of drinking half a glass of the shake. Hopefully it was just the milk and not the shake that I reacted to. I’ll have to stick to just water (cold) from now on and blend with ice to thicken it a bit. I don’t like it watery. I drink one two shakes a day and have a normal dinner. No snacks except maybe fruit and nuts. No processed sugars and avoid heavily processed foods (besides the shakes). These shakes DO keep me full until the next meal. Since I’ve only just recently started I can’t comment on the weight loss yet. I’m currently 100kgs and my goal is to lose 30 kgs.

Taste – I love the chocolate trim and slim. I buy at least 40 packets a fortnight. They have a very different horrible taste, I'm wondering if there's a reason for this. Show details

Great taste – I have been on Celebrity Slim for about 10 years and find hard to get sometimes. My sister buys the Aldi shakes so I tried one and they tasted very similar to Celebrity Slim but thicker. They are also cheaper than any other shake. I have tried a few brands and this would be the best. I tried Lady Shake and took one mouthful and tipped the rest out alas they were too sweet and disgusting. Thanks Aldi for stocking the best shake Show details

Great price and very tasty – I wanted to buy Celebrity Slim but they were out of stock. I had heard about the Aldi Slim and Trim so gave them a go instead. Its only been a few days so no weight loss to comment on but the shakes are a winner with me. Just the right consistency and dissolve easily just in a shaker (other products say you need a nutri bullet to get them smooth). They have a good amount of protein too. At $2 per serve, you can't go wrong.

Chocolate was unbearable to drink – Tried this chocolate flavour, really not a good taste.. i held it in my mouth and was telling myself “just swallow it and I just couldn’t” it tasted a bit toxic. I enjoy the strawberry tho, I’ll give a 4 star review for that one. Show details

too much sugar – The strawberry and chocolate were my favorite flavours but unfortunately i will no longer be buying them I have noticed it has 23grams of sugar in a 55 gram packet that is close to 42% of sugar in the whole Package This is crazy in a so called package Health program .I will no longer be buying these I would be just as well off buying a ctn of flavoured milk . Shame Aldi shame Show details

I lost 16kgs in 10 weeks – I'm extremely happy with the results and they taste great I've tried all four flavours coffee,chocolate, strawberry and vanilla my favourite is coffee and chocolate.I use cold water to make the shakes. I lost 16 kilos in just 10 weeks and that's with doing minimal exercise and walking. I started with two shakes a day for the first week, one for… Read more

breakfast and one for lunch a piece of fruit and whatever I wanted for dinner. I drank cold water in between if I got a little bit hungry.

From the second week I added carrot sticks cucumber sticks celery sticks and avocado dip as a snack in between. I'm a diet controlled diabetic all my levels are within normal range now and I'm feeling really great now.

I recommend these shakes to everyone that asked me how I lost my weight or anyone that's looking to lose weight.

I have maintained my weight loss for 6 months now.

Great value great taste – Tried one sachet and i was very impressed (chocolate) The texture is just like a chocolate milkshake and tastes just like one too. Satisfying taste, filled me up, great value for money and now when I do my next shop 11 sachets will be on the list. My reason for only 4 stars is because I'm very worried about the sugar intake as it is more then a block of chocolate, but apart from this I think its highly recommended.

IM OBSESSED WITH THE CHOCOLATE FLAVOUR – I have tried every brand and all the different companies that make meal replacement shakes, but the Aldi slim & trim are by far my favourite. I gained 15 kilos after the birth of my second born son, & these shakes along with an hour long walk everyday helped me lose all my weight plus more. My only gripe is my local Aldi store "EASTLAKES" never has the chocolate on the shelves!!!!

Excellent – The chocolate is by far the best. I mix the chocolate with a little hot water before adding my milk to dissolve the product. I don't need to do it withe the vanilla or strawberry. I also add milk and not water to my shakes as I find they taste better. These are amazing. I haven't tried coffee because I hate coffee as a flavour. I like… Read more

chocolate the best followed by strawberry and vanilla. I also have the chocolate mix with hot water and hot milk in winter and it is devine.
