I apologize on a lengthy post in advance, but I'm trying to be as through as possible. Thanks for your reply.



Hello. You've probably read questions like this everyday so if you swore you were only going to answer one more, let it be this one, LOL.

I received a job offer but I am not sure if I will pass my UA, if tested.

On Jan 7th, I took a home test and failed. I had about one week that I had quit smoking.
So today makes it about 3 weeks with out smoking.

Before that I would smoke chronically and have been for a few months. Maybe a year. Not daily but very often. Some weeks 3-4 times, some seven days a week, some none, and some just once. I would smoke no more than a gram per week but in some instances more, but no more than an 1/8th oz per week.

The two weeks prior to quitting, I only smoked once or twice during each week.

Now me: I'm about 5'11, no taller than 6ft and weigh around 195lbs.
I lift weights 3-4 times a week and jog occasionally. Been doing that since '08 so I have a lot of muscle but also have some fat since I used to be a fat dude. My job is physically demanding, I offload a trailer and I'm always on my feet. I do not sweat much but I do work out a lot. I eat healthy. My diet doesn't differ much from chicken, tuna, eggs, brown/black beans, lentil beans, sandwiches, protein shakes, oatmeal and such. Upon research I came across a piece of information that said to eat fatty foods a few days before the test, so I pretty much loaded up, LOL. Ate burritos, greasy Mexican food, Salvi food, moms regular cooking. Put extra sour cream and cheese on a bunch of crap, drank regular soda, etc.

Not sure how fast is my metabolism.

Today was my interview and I thought the UA would be today so I drank a 'Stinger' detox that I bought on the 7th along with my drug test but ended up being not tested. The dude claimed the detox would have my piss clean for 5 hours and after that, that my body would be 35% cleaner. Sounds like BS to me though. I have to go back in tomorrow, I'm assuming to finalize paper work and I'm dreading that a UA might be included also.



EDIT: I've also read not to work out few days prior to the UA. Haven't worked out since Friday. I already feel like a slob, and I'm probably going to the park later to job. Does anyone advice against it? Why? ..how about lifting weights?

Thanks, Erik.

You'll have the answer as to why all fat-burning exercise should be avoided 3 days prior to the scheduled U/A.

Appreciate the response Burnt Toast.
You seem well informed based on other threads you've replied on that I've came across while researching. Judging from what I've typed up in this thread and your experience, would you say I have chance at passing, or am I "burnt toast?" LOL.

Judging from what I've typed up in this thread and your experience, would you say I have chance at passing, or am I "burnt toast?" Nobody can realistically answer that question for you because each persons body is different. Only periodic testing with a THC test kit (using the first urination of the day for each time) can give you that answer.

Had an interesting (Pre Employment) drug test today.

-Walked in (it's also a Hospital I think), signed papers and was drinking free coffee the whole time as I waited.
-Named got called and they made me empty out my pockets with out bothering to pat me down or check if I did empty them.
-Added dye to the toilet bowl and was told told to piss.
-Could've easily lifted the back of the toilet and added water or snuck in fake piss but didn't since I passed a home test yesterday. Or I believe I did since I saw a line, although very faint, it was visible
-Went outside, gave him the results and he pulled out a home like test, and squirted three drops of my piss, LOL.

Completely tripped me out... in my head I'm like "the fuck happened to the lab and all the scary shit I've read"

I'm there joking with the test administrators, as he faxed the results, some dude in another bathroom and another chilling drinking a coke haha..

Asked him if I passed and he stated he couldn't give me results. Insisted once and very low he stated "looks fine."

Unless he lied, I'm starting on Monday (:

If that's the facility they'll be testing me in, looks like I'm going to be able to smoke after all LOL.
