Aldi store assistant shares 5 secrets to working there
Known for its eclectic Specialbuys aisles, among other things, Aldi has plenty of secrets to working there that the general public might not know about. Store Assistant Georgina Phillips has shared some of the quirks and surprises that come with the job at the UK's fourth-largest supermarket. Georgina shares: "This is a real perk in the retail industry. Our breaks are paid - so whether I'm eating lunch or enjoying some downtime in between shifts, I'm still earning. "Over the course of a year, it adds up to around £1,370 extra in your pay packet, which can make a real difference." Aldi workers get trained across the whole store, so one day they might be stacking fruit and vegetables, and on another day they'll be on the tills. Georgina adds: "That flexibility means every Store Assistant can perform whatever role is needed at that time - which keeps queues down and things moving fast." A post shared by Aisle of Aldi Specialbuys (@aldispecialbuysuk) Aldi has a number of measures to help run things efficiently, including having larger barcodes to help with scanning. Georgina explains: "Even shelf packaging is designed for efficiency by being ready to slot straight onto the shelves. It's part of the reason Aldi can offer such great value." Georgina says: "Not only is Aldi the best-paying supermarket, but from free same-day GP appointments to discounted gym memberships and a dedicated wellbeing app, the benefits make a real difference too. "If my toddler is ever poorly, I can use Aldi's digital GP service and get help within hours – which is faster than my usual surgery.

31 year old woman who went from 114kgs to 69kgs shares 4 sure-shot tips to lose weight quickly and naturally
Image credit: Instagram/georginabaileyfit/ Georgina Bailey's weight loss journey is not just about losing weight and cutting down on kilos, it's a story of rediscovering life. At one point, she weighed 114 kilos and wore a size 20. Running even a single kilometre felt impossible. But in just 18 months, she turned her life around with the help of her coach, Johnny. Today, Georgina weighs 69 kilos, runs marathons, and glows with self-love and energy. But what truly stands out is her transparency; she doesn't talk about shortcuts or magic formulas. Instead, she shares habits that worked slowly but surely. Here are some realistic and natural steps she swears by. Fat loss isn't about starvation, it's about smart protein choices A common belief floating around is that one must eat less to lose weight. But Georgina's routine tells a different story. She didn't give up food, she made smarter swaps. One key change was understanding the role of protein. Instead of loading up on high-fat protein sources, she leaned on leaner options like chicken breast, white fish, and prawns. These gave her the fullness she needed without piling on unnecessary calories. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 東京の猫好きがこの猫型ランプに夢中になる理由を大公開！ Wmet 詳細 Undo Different protein sources have varying calorie and fat content. Choosing lean proteins allows larger portions without exceeding calorie goals. This is especially helpful for people who enjoy "volume eating", feeling full while staying in a calorie deficit. Keep meals simple, high-protein, and quick One doesn't need fancy superfoods or expensive powders to stay fit. Georgina regularly shares quick recipes like her Easy Prawn Fried Rice, which packs 28 grams of protein in just 512 calories. This meal, made with everyday ingredients, rice, peas, prawns, soy sauce, and miso paste, comes together in under 10 minutes and still supports fat loss goals. The body needs protein to maintain muscle during fat loss. Meals like this are proof that high-protein doesn't mean boring. Balanced meals, when cooked mindfully, can be both satisfying and fat-loss friendly. Regular exercise is important for your overall wellness. Consistency over intensity, fitness that grows with the person Georgina didn't jump into extreme workouts or rigid gym routines. In the beginning, she couldn't even run a kilometre. But with patience and consistency, she built up her stamina and eventually ran a full marathon. This shows that progress doesn't come from pushing too hard, but from showing up regularly, even on tough days. Slow and steady exercise, when done consistently, improves endurance and metabolism. It's not about how intense the workout is at first, but about forming a rhythm the body can adapt to over time. Falling in love with the process, not just the outcome Perhaps the most powerful part of Georgina's story is her shift in mindset. At the end of 18 months, she didn't just lose weight, she fell in love with staying fit and healthy. She openly admits that she never imagined she would enjoy this lifestyle. But the truth is, she didn't chase a finish line, she found joy in the process. Lasting weight loss comes not from punishment or pressure, but from building habits that feel sustainable. When movement and eating well become a part of daily life, the body responds naturally, and happily.
