The doctor I used to work for and he tried to help me with weight loss recomended that you drink 1/2 your weight in ounces of water. So for me, I need to drink 100 ounces which is close to a gallon as a gallon of water is 128 ounces. So that is not far off from what I should be drinking.
I hope this helps. it is a good reference point for getting your water in.
