Since you started core are you getting in real variety with your dinners and such or finding you are eating the same things over and over again? On flex I was bad about having the same thing for breakfast and lunch everyday... I do believe that is what made me lose so slowly. Now on Core I try to shake things up but I find I'm starting to have eggs and ham everyday for breakfast and I don't want to get in a rut. Also, I think cottage cheese may be becoming a constant at dinner... do you find any of this happening to you?
I think I'm doing the same thing for breakfast. It's easier for me to have cereal and milk or pack cereal and ff plain yogurt during the week, so I go with that. I do try to have something different for the weekend, though. I've been pretty good so far about having variety at the other meals. Although, I was thinking this morning that I need to eat more veggies than I have been. I've been eating lots of fruit lately.
I have found (since I am doing Flore/Clex) I have always done variety. I get bored with things easily so it is easy for me to have different things. I regularly try new recipes...next week I am making these Mexican Meatball things in the crockpot...when I first started I tried a new veggie or fruit every week. If I liked it I added it to the rotation if I didn't I don't but it.
I bake/cook a few healthy dishes and eat from them all week. I eat left overs for the main part of lunch, so lunch changes everyday. But my favorites are a mainstay.
I get very bored easily too so like to cook lots during the week and then eat leftovers or soups I have made for lunches. I have to have lots of variety in dinner too.
But..breakfast has been eggs/ham or oatmeal daily. And my afternoon snack has been cottage cheese and fruit. Hard to think of snack ideas.

I think my breakfasts and lunches are pretty much the same few things, but I try a lot of new recipes for dinners, so that helps to spice it up a little but for me.
