you may be right

but since she added the word 'nua' (which means 'more'), i think the whole sentence means

"i'm eating now, i'll reach home in about 45 mins"

the word "tam" here means "about"... it's usually used by people from the northern part.. those who are from the southern usually say "khoang"
