making small changes

I have been making a change every week to my eating habits. That is helping me to knock out some of the bad habits.  I am using a different website to log my eating.  It breaks down and displays the nutrient contents that you are eating. It shows you where you are going over, getting adequate amounts and where you are lacking.  
Taking a lunch and some healthy snacks to work has helped me to stop nibbling on the chips and crackers there.   I have a tendency to eat on the way home from work and to eat soon as I get in.  I learned to be prepared for that.  I have fruit or veggies in the car with me. 
According to the "shrink yourself" program when personal relationships are lacking then that creates an emotional  hunger. For me I need to reach out with an open mind yet without any expectation.  If I do not get the response I need then I have the peace that I did my part.  I did reach out to my mother.  Of course, I got the usual behaviour.  I just reminded myself the I have the peace that I did my part.
