PS I liked the water bottles - I hate tap water in this state.
It's sorta like this for me too. I ate about 1200 yesterday evening and I'm already up to 1000 today (I'd normally be at 400-500 by this time of day). And that's being reasonably restrained and without any junk food in the house. But, since my total for yesterday was something like 2500 in / 3200 out, even going above target today still means good progress on average.
I can't really tell the difference in taste between tap water and bottle water. As far as I know, tap water quality standards are basically the same if not more stringent than bottled water standards. And if they want to bring bottle water, they could at least get half-gallon or gallon bottles, this way they don't end up with so much trash.
