Hay guys haven't been on much I've been training really hard for a bb contest it's in 19 days I'm down to 175 lbs and 6.3 % bf, very strict dieting and hard training but anyway was checking on some advice about diuretics the last week, I know about the carb loading, salt and water manipulation, I was looking for teraxatone but they no longer make it, or should I just cut water 24 hrs and go for it

I'm guessing this is a local show and you are an amateur? If I'm correct then there is no need to use diuretics. I always used dandelion root extract which is a natural diuretic. Post up a pic so we can see how you're coming along. What does your water load/depletion look like? Here's what I used:
If show is on Saturday
Monday- (2 gallons)
Tuesday- (1.5 gallons)
Wednesday- (1 gallons) water pills w/ every meal and last pill morning of show
Thursday- (1/2 gallon)
Friday- (1/4 gallon)
Saturday - sips only

Thanks Chadd that's how I was going to manipulate water but was going to only sip after 10 am Friday weigh in is Friday at 5 yes it is a amateur show I lost a lot of fat went from 265 to 175 and will probably came in around 167 or so but the skin is horrible but it's a goal I set 21/2 years ago so gonna try this was 3 weeks ago I was at 186

Good for you man, loosing 100 pounds is remarkable!! Very cool of you to set that kind of goal and actually be able to stick to the plan and achieve it.
Definitely don't mess with the diuretics. I would even caution you on the carb/fat loading the night before. I've seen too many blow it because of that. If you do it just go easy. Good luck to you brother! Be sure to update us on how you made out.

This is good advice.Dandelion root extract has allways been a safe diuretic for a very long time.This I have used many of times.
