I need to improve my diet, but I need to include some junk(ier) food for 2 reasons. Can you comment?

1) An entirely whole foods diet drives me crazy. 2) I'm fearful of not having whole foods available if on vacation or otherwise away from home. I have fibromyalgia, leaky gut, and other health problems that would almost certainly go completely into remission if I ate a perfect diet. Seafood, chicken, beans, fiber, complex carbs...etc. These are the best for me, but if they're all I eat, within 3 days I feel like I'm in prison when it comes time to eat. I've tried learning to make healthier foods tastier, but it's like calculus for the math-o-phobe. My plan is to eat MORE whole foods, rather than completely change over to such a diet. What effect do you predict such a change would have?

She is already on foodstamps and all that. The problem is that she says she applied for a greencard but I have a feeling that she is a illegal resident.
