Welcome to the beige universe! There's an overwhelming amount of advice out there, but these are a few tips I've found most useful:
* Concentrate, list and buy all the foods you *can* eat. Looking at the forbidden fruit list will drive you crazy.
* Purge or at least partition the fridge, freezer and pantry.
The biggest advantage I've found is that there are so few key ingredients I've usually got all the makings for any given safe recipe.
The attractiveness part I think is specific to glutamates ("flavour") and possibly amines. I believe it from experience - if I fall off the wagon a little bit, it's very difficut to stop. Just like an alcoholic - no such thing as "just one drink".
