You possibly will not think it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes paximadia (zwieback) but it is feasible. It is pivotal to not eat paximadia (zwieback) or other high calorie bread every day but in moderation.

For example, I allow myself high calorie food one meal per week. I eat a healthy diet for most of the week, say 1400 to 2000 calories a day, and then on the last day, I eat whatever I like – within moderation of course.

I have been sticking to this diet for the last 4 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise habits or taken any vitamins or diet drinks. I have only been conscious of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day per week.

I also feel it makes things easier if you have some support when dieting and for that I signed up with the Biggest Loser club. They have many tools to enable you to monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

Paximadia (Zwieback)

1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup granulated sugar
3 large eggs
3 1/2 to 4 cups flour, divided
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease two baking sheets.

Beat oil and sugar. Add eggs one at a time.

In bowl, measure and mix together 2 cups flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, nuts, and sesame seeds. Add flour mixture to egg mixture and add remaining flour as necessary to make a soft dough. Divide dough into four equal balls. Roll each to 12 inches long x 3 inches wide and 1/4-inch thick. Bake for 15 minutes on prepared baking sheets.

Remove loaves from oven. While warm, slice 3/4-inch thick diagonally or straight across. Place each slice cut side down back on baking sheet. Return to oven and lightly brown about 5 minutes per side to make a light toast.

Yield: 5 dozen
