She said that for those people that are used to drinking A LOT of coffee each day, it doesn't have as much of a diuretic effect as for someone who rarely drinks it. By the way, this rule goes for any caffinated beverage, i.e., tea, Coke, etc, not just coffee.

That's a stretch, but I do try to get in about 5 12 oz. glasses of water plus 16-32 oz. of coffee each day. That would top out at 92 oz., not bad...

Thanks, PoohBear!
That helps me, tremendously. I was afraid I was really going to have to cut down on the coffee. I did end up drinking 72oz. of water yesterday, which is great for me because I wasn't drinking any before that.

Do you have any problem with your eyes?

I'm wondering how long it will take before I will notice (if at all) a change in my eyes after drinking all this water. I might need to drink more than I am drinking. I don't know.
