Talking When should I start Taraxatone?

Question for anyone who might be able to help -
My show is this Saturday and I want to take Taraxatone to help lose those last bits of water. I have already increased my water intake to 2 gallons a day since sunday - today I cut it back to 1.5 gallons and tomorrow I will drop to 1/2 gallon until 6:00pm

My question is this - I am due for my "monthly friend" tomorrow -
The same thing happened at my last show and I did not lose as much water as I would have liked - so that is why I want to take the Taraxatone.
However, I am not sure when to start? Today or tomorrow??
Any input would be most appreciated!!

Thanks

hey laulau418, good luck in the show, it looks like your monthly friend picked a bad time to visit huh, wow! is this a figure or bodybuilding contest sorry but you did not specify, anyways i would start today, actually a girl that recently competed in a bodybuilding contest and started her taraxatone on wednesday she also took nolvadex though to help lower and control her estrogen levels (a bit extreme) but i would def. start today and drink a boatload of water this should help. natural dieuretics take a while to perform their job so please start today.

P.S. if this is a bodybuilding show then if you can reach a pretty low bodyfat % then you will not have to worry about your monthly friend, even top figure contestants do not get their monthly friend due to both low bodyfat and (certain drugs..LOL)


good luck on your show saturday

Hey B-boy - thanks for the advice!!
I am competing in the Figure Nationals this Saturday.
Yes - talk about bad timing!! Both shows!!
It is unbelievable....
Anyway - I am just trying to cover all the bases knowing ahead of time that I am "supposed to get it" - I don't want to wake up Saturday morning a bloated mess...
know what I mean?

Well - Thanks again - and I am going to start today!! I will be sure to let you know how it goes!

Thanks again

Lauri

I started my tarax yesterday which was the same day I started carb loading and cutting water. Water went from 2gal a day to 1gal yesterday, 1/2gal today and 1/4gal tommorow. My contest is Sat also. I just took the recommened dose of tarax 3pills after breakfast and then 3 after early evening meal. It did help dry me out and my muscles are still full but that could be due to my 400g carb load from yams. I'd say start your tarax today but only take 2pills twice a day and if your still holding water bump it up to 3. Also saturday morning take 3 only if you need them.

Also when you cut your water make sure your not doing anything. I found it very easy to only drink 1/2gal a day when you do nothing. Just drop like $50 at blockbuster. Im now officially a movie critic. Anyone want reviews on almost any movie, ask me
