The Institute of Medicine recommends an average of 3.7 liters (125 ounces) per day for healthy adult men and 2.7 liters (91 ounces) per day for healthy adult women, allowing adjustments for activity and health levels, climate and elevation, and the amount of water consumed from food and other drinks.
The rule of thumb is take your body weight, divide it by 2 (cut it in half), and that's how many ounces of water you should be drinking every day -- if you're active, you need to drink more. In your case, you need to drink about 92 ounces of water every day. That's a little more than 5 16-ounce glasses of water.
