Recommended water intake:

Many experts say that you should aim for 8 cups of water a day. But considering all of our bodies are different, a better measure is half your weight in ounces daily. 

Weight Divided by 2 = Water intake in ounce 

A male that weighs 180lbs should have around 90 ounces of water daily (11.25 cups) 

A Female that weights 130lbs should have around 65 ounces of water daily (8.125 cups)
