Instead of obsessing over ounces, look at the color of your urine. If it’s pale yellow like lemonade, you’re golden. If it’s dark like apple juice, you’re dehydrated. If it’s totally clear, you might be overhydrating, which can actually flush out essential salts.
So, don’t force it. Your kidneys are smart—they’ll tell you when you’ve had enough. Listen to them, not a number on a chart.
