Summary of 73, can I change for 72?

yesterday like monday - home immediately to moria "I'm only having a little" but then it extends into "I'm waiting for LA to come home" then he's home and I'm "waiting again" and in waiting it's all done. But then more berries + cocoa, more more then my sparkling water. Then I'm so OF that I'm in pain and burping up. Swear I'm done. Home to more. 

WTF. 

I'm reading The Hunger Habit.  Trigger to Behavior to Result.

What is the Behavior I want to change? I want to quit coming home to Moria and overeating. It's not that I'm eating unhealthy foods (side note, I have oats and PB and yogurt and cottage cheese in the house and I'm NOT eating it, whoa!!!) but I'm eating mindlessly under anxiety, the excuse of "waiting" and being unscheduled for a period of time. 

The Result is what I get from this. I get distracted in the short term, I get to watch a youtube video or stare at Reddit. In the long term I'm unhappy, regretting it, OF, burping, and Balrog is looking at me. 

The Trigger - coming home, tired and rushed sometimes, bored or waiting or unscheduled or anxious or lonely or uncertain what else to do next. I don't come to work unscheduled or waiting for a meeting and have the urge to eat. It's coming back to the house. 

Today - when I come back to the house, it will be much earlier than usual as I came to work earlier as part of my Shift the Commute experiment. Left today at 632, work by 710, means I should be leaving BEFORE 330. Home by... 4-415? Way too early for M3 so I have to have a goal of what I'm going to do  and a plan to interup the Habit Loop I just mapped out. 

I'm only on Day 5 of the book, there's 21 total. Day 4 was map the behavior.
