hit a weird bug initially, got to the point where it asked how much water I drank-- I answered "5", and then it reverted to telling me it'll never put me on a diet

Hey, thanks for trying it out! yeah, we asked a few questions that require you to rate things from 1-10 so in order for Lyle to differentiate we asked that you add "glasses" at the end of your answer. but we need to work on making that flow clearer. Thanks again for trying it out.

I ran into the same issue.
If you haven't, I'd check out some other popular chat bots for their UX. Ex.: Woebot https://www.facebook.com/drwoebot/
Having buttons for things like "continue", "go on" or "not right now" is something I took for granted. No need to have me type it if there's a limited set of acceptable responses.

Thanks for checking us out. We haven't come across these guys before. We played around with having buttons or going with NLP to make it more realistic. Perhaps we should have both, thanks for the feedback!
