Is there a Yoshinoya type place there? Think beef or chicken teriyaki bowl - should be pretty cheap.
Also, maybe now's a good time to be not so picky.
If you can afford to have "protein etc" shipped to you, you can definitely afford to buy the fruits etc and other food in Japan (I know how crazy expensive it is, but so is having stuff shipped to you). Besides, why go to Japan at all if not to try new things?
What about the McDonald's.? Also, can you add more volume to your meals? Like more rice, sauce, meats (fish, chicken, the (hard) pork, beef etc). Are yoy drinking beer too? Try to drink at least one or two beers with every meal (seriously). They have good beers there.
Good luck man, let us know how you're doing.
Oh, have you tried posting in Tilted Traveling? Maybe other Westerners in Japan can share some insight with you.
