It’s a myth that you have to drink 8 glasses of Water a day. No science behinds this or needing 64 oz of Water per day. Of course Water requirements vary per person, so you have to find what’s right for you. If your pee is pale yellow in the toilet, you are hydrated.

Oh, and coffee does not cause you to lose additional fluids or dehydrate you.

Everyone is different and 64oz of water tends to be somewhere in the middle in terms of Fluid requirements. Some people can get by on much less. If you work out / sweat it out more you will need more.

You are correct about caffeine not causing your to become dehydrated. The reason for the initial embargo on caffeine is because it is an irritant that can increase the chance of ulcers in the first few months after surgery.
