I'm not criticising your choices at all so please don't think that but in the long run you'd probably be better off with this suggestion
1 - often the pots are highly processed so hit the levels quicker and
2 - they contain milk powder which adds to the carbohydrate content
why don't you try making your own? with quaker jumbo rolled oats (very often on special in most supermarkets 2 for £3) use unsweetened almond milk (alpro has no carbs to think about) and put in the microwave for a couple of minutes, it's fab! 🙂
I do apologise I'm only trying to help 🙂 xx
 
I agree with @Kaylz. The pots would work out a lot more expensive too.

Got to apologise to Kaylz for sending her on a wild goose chase, my wife informs me we got the Hoki fish from another supermarket, so probably no point looking for it in Aldi. Sorry. 😳

L: Home made scotch egg
S: Tea with 2 sugar free ginger biscuits
D: Bacon carbonara with soya bean spaghetti

So yesterday’s food

L - Gammon & egg salad inc a few olives
D - Tandoori mixed grill from takeaway with salad

Glass of red
 
Found these today while sniffing around, bottled Green Teas. 0 Carbs - 0 Sugar, in fact 0 everything lol. Something else in Vince's armoury for when the hot weather arrives. Will be nice ice cold. Carbs is the 5 characters and sugar the one below it. :D
