Hi Xee,
I'm glad it worked out well for you. I love the cookies too.
I haven't had any trouble staying in the Zone with them, but I usually eat the whole package at a time. I've read somewhere in the ZoneFast info that for the breads and rolls, it’s recommended to toast or put in the microwave very briefly, to freshen. If you look at the Grocery additions page, you'll see that you can add lots of veggies to your ZoneFast meals.
I was away for 5 days over the past 2 weekends combined, and brought Zone foods with both times. It worked out very well. There was a fridge in my room last weekend, though not the weekend before. This past weekend we were attending a destination wedding that included 3 days of festivities. I didn't have time to get to a store where we were staying, so I bought a huge deli turkey sandwich across the street from the hotel and used the meat, cheese and veggies in the sandwich to make several ZoneFast sandwiches over the following 3 days. My breakfasts were Zone bagels and cinnamon rolls with cream cheese from the breakfast room at the hotel. We ate Zone pretzels, granola and cookies for snacks. My husband, also a zoner, did the same except he ate Zone granola for breakfast. The rest of the time, which amounted to one meal a day we had Zone friendly meals at the reception and at restaurants. My favorite meal was Friday night, roasted asparagus spears and goat cheese, wrapped in prociutto, with a balsamic vinegar reduction and basil chiffonade. Oh wow, it was so good! This was probably the best meal I've ever had in a restaurant.
