I have always gone along with the formula that we are to drink
half our body weight in ounces of water daily. For instance a
150 pound guy would drink 75 ounces of water daily.

Would the same formula work for a 500 pound guy? 250 ounces of
water a day? Reason I ask is that I heard that a woman on a
radio station competition died when she drank this amount of
water. But it would be ok to drink this much if you are at the
appropriate weight??
