    Depends on the foods you eat, your size etc. I drink about 75-100 oz a day.
  • I have heard that you take your weight and divide by two and thats the amount of water in ounces you need to drink. :)
  • When I started my fitness lifestyle, I was honest with myself, drinking water is the easiest thing we can do for our bodies,minds and to reach goals. So unfortunate to see men and woman marketing "Cleansing" diets/products ect when they have yet to simple drink a gallon of water a day.

    16 cups -that's it.

    Upon waking I drink 3

    Between meals 3.

    This is a really good article so hopefully it answers your question. I live in Phoenix so drinking lots of water is an absolute must. I know I sure feel better the more I drink. We make lots of fruit infused waters as honestly we get sick of just plain ol' water because we have to drink so much of it!
