Looking for friends following mediterranean diet...

Is there anyone following mediterranean diet?

I just move to the U.S from Taiwan. Since American food is so different with food in my country, also I'm here studying by myself without my sweet mother, I'm trying to learn how to cook healthy meal here.

I used to eat very healthy and do workout everyday; however, after getting here, though I still do my workout regularly, my diet has become so messy. One of the reason is that I'd like to try everything, coz everything is new for me. Another reason is that I have no idea how to cook healthy and delicious meal here, except making some easy salad. Worst of all, I met some new friends here, they'd like to hang out at the bar every weekend, so I also have some beers, shots and vodka. Their calories are terribly high already, and I found I have hunger for oily food like fries and pizza after drinking.

AWwwww... I really don't like my life style right now.....
Anyway, I've gained a few pounds here. Now is time for me to get my life back on track!!!!

Really need recipes, some guidance and motivation right now....
