2) As for conditioning, Rip recommended metabolic conditioning by Crossfit. Any idea where I can find out what that is?
google is your friend. Make sure you're eating enough on your CF days.

5) This is the only question that's got me scratching my head. Do I just suck it up or is there a better solution?
White bread/pasta isn't going to kill you. Go ahead and have some; at 120 lbs, you need as many cals as you can get. Another option is to make smoothies, you can usually get in a good amount of cals without filling up. For example, I just had a post-workout shake(I hate that term) consisting of:
1 sccop whey
12 oz milk
1/2 cup ice cream
banana
1 cup oatmeal.

Trying to eat that much whole would be hard for me. However, blending it into a shake makes it much more doable.
