how much water???

I'm trying to get healthier, and I know drinking enough water is one of my major issues.
I have been trying to drink more water, but I don't know how much I should be drinking. Googling did not help.

Is it the old measurement of 8 - 8oz glasses a day?
The new measurement of your body weight / 2 = # of ounces you should be drinking?

or the even crazier one of your weight * 2/3 = amount of ounces you should be drinking?


help please!

1/2 body weight in oz ex: if you weigh 150lbs then your water intake should be 75 oz. There is an app for your phone to remind you to drink water & keep track.

This is what I do. It was hard at first, but now I usually end up drinking even more than that.

I try to do half my weight in oz. I really do have to make a conscious effort throughout the day o stop and drink. I absolutely think it is helping with my weight loss.
