UA test tomorrow - how reliable are at-home tests? (first big kid job)

[livingthehighlife]

I've passed two at-home tests (the kind from Walgreens) after doing daily (sometimes all day on and off) for let's say four months consistently and six years with a few short breaks. One test I passed after diluting about a week after stopping smoking, and the second was the first void of the day after two weeks. Both faint lines, but still negative. To me, this seems unreasonably fast, especially given how long and how much I've been smoking some excellent Arcata-grown indoor herb. I'm 5ft, 120lbs with 25% body fat (average for a lady), and I exercise somewhat frequently - probably four times a week of interval running and a few weight sessions. So for the more experienced smokers out there - these tests claim to be reliable, and because I'm freaking out I double-checked by having my bf take and predictably fail one, but are they? Just in case, I plan on drinking a ton of water, cranberry juice, green tea and Gatorade with some B-12s and a multivitamin tomorrow before my test (I've got N2's sticky memorized). Stopped exercising a few days ago to limit the metabolites excreted from fat-burning, and my creatine level is naturally low because I'm a vegetarian and don't supplement. Good to go? (Reassurance would be so freaking awesome).

Home tests function on the same principle as the assays used by the labs for the initial screening. Neither are more reliable than the other.

If they're equally as reliable/unreliable, that's somewhat reassuring. Thanks! I'll make sure to post my results from following N2's guide on that sticky. Whether I pass or not, you guys are so great for helping us anxious job-seekers out.

im in the same boat! i stoped smoking 16 days ago and im already testing neg. Ive been on a strict diet of eating only grilled meat, veggies and clean carbs...i feel that since your a vegitarian and probably have a clean diet and exercise too is the main reason your already testing neg.

Its evident that the workout sessions are working against you. Youre burning fat cells, which releases the stored THC metabolites into your bloodstream, and in which are ending up in the urine to be detected.
