I don't understand what the problem is. You can eat cookies if you want. If you allow yourself 1300 calories a day, then you should have no problem eating cookies. Yogurt and wheat germ are 185 (breakfast), lunch is easy to pull off at 300 to 400 calories TOPS, and that still leaves you 700+ calories for dinner. You can definitely eat 450 to 500 calories for dinner, and whatever is left is your cookie allowance.
If that isn't enough, have your cookies for breakfast.
The whole idea of calorie counting is that you control HOW you spend your calories. Just as you control how you spend your money.
I don't get it when people complicate it so much by freaking about what they ate. Granted, I wouldn't waste calories on soda but I'm not giving up my M&M's once a week either.
Take a step back, look at your entire plan, and grasp the point behind calorie counting. You're stressing like a South Beach dieter.
