Every day you lose water through your breath, perspiration, urine and bowel movements. For your body to function properly, you must replenish its water supply by consuming beverages and foods that contain water.
A couple of approaches attempt to approximate water needs for the average, healthy adult living in a temperate climate.
Replacement approach. The average urine output for adults is 1.5 liters a day. You lose close to an additional liter of water a day through breathing, sweating and bowel movements. Food usually accounts for 20 percent of your total fluid intake, so if you consume 2 liters of water or other beverages a day (a little more than 8 cups) along with your normal diet, you will typically replace the lost fluids.
Dietary recommendations. The Institute of Medicine advises that men consume roughly 3.0 liters (about 13 cups) of total beverages a day and women consume 2.2 liters (about 9 cups) of total beverages a day.
Even apart from the above approaches, it is generally the case that if you drink enough fluid so that you rarely feel thirsty and produce between one and two liters of colorless or slightly yellow urine a day, your fluid intake is probably adequate.

6-8 glasses ( so say the medics) , but I recommend at least 2 ltrs to keep you beautiful and fresh.
A 2 liter bottle sounds good to me...
I like to drink about 1 and half gallons a day!! I think thats plenty of water if you want to keep hydrated all day!!
6 - 8 glasses
As said by someone else before, 6-8 glasses is recommended.
Depending on the environment and whatever you happen to be doing, this can vary though. The best indicator of when you should drink water is when you are thristy.
1.5 to 2 liters per day
about 8-10 cups

6-8 glasses a day

64 oz. Is a good starting point. Some do say to take your total weight and divide by two. Take that amount in ounces per day. Thay is to keep properly hydrated. Yes, the restroom trips will be more frequent for a while, if your urine is white or light yellow, you have an adequate amount of water, if darker, you may need need more water.
