I need to make a weight that is day of the tournament and I'm on track but as a last minute precaution I want to be completely empty if ya know what I'm saying. What are some of the best products to take that any of you have had experience with? Every half pound will help in this situation, don't want to sweat but I will if I have to.

I can only see this ending badly
smooth move tea. drink at bedtime and crap your brains out in morning. i get at sprouts but im sure u can find anywhere.
My mom needed a colonoscopy so they doctor had her take a small bottle of miralax mixed with gatorade the day before the procedure then drink a bottle of magnesium citrate the morning off. Do them both when you can be at home because they affect people differently and you can expect to be in the bathroom all day.
Remember they dehydrate you so I wouldn't recommend doing this for a day of weigh in. Rehydrate with pedialyte after to ensure you are back to normal in time to compete if you weigh in the night before. If it is same day then possibly do the magnesium citrate the afternoon before and only have a liquid diet. This isn't ideal for keeping energy up for a competition but sweating it out would be just as draining on you.
I swear by just watching sodium intake. Cut out processed foods since they a full of salt. Drink an ass load of water to flush any salt out. You will drop excess water weight. I would caution any thing more than that since if you "clear" the system, it will dehydrate you therefore your body may retain more water. It could bite you in the ass.

If you were further out I'd say take some Senna tea. That'll gently cleanse you, and it's easier on your body than Ex-Lax and other laxatives. But, how far of weight are you?
I will bring it to the gym tonight.
A big Bowl of All-Bran or a giant galss of cherry juice the night before will make sure you are 'empty' in the morning which is not too bad for a Same Day weigh in. I suspect the pro's are doing what Amber suggested in post #5. Picosalax is available over the counter at the drug store, this will flush most of the water out of your body and you will see dramatic temporary weight loss (about 10lbs). The risk is that you will be dehydrated, so it is not good for Same Day weigh ins but it is great for 24 hr before weigh ins. If you use it you need to re-hydrate with elctrolytes (pedialyte or chicken noodle soup) to avoid cramping up or worse.
How much weight do you need to lose?
Im about a pound and a half over 159 which is where I need to be. I'm not looking to shit my brains out, a nice natural solution. Thanks Bobby, I wasn't sure if you had anymore of those. No gym tonight though, just letting my body rest. I've had several brutal weeks in a row.
golden seal and drink as much water as you can bro and you'll be good 2 go:cool:
I still think this is a bad idea....
I've done it before, it doesn't get too crazy when you use the right stuff. It's all about timing and the right product, I just couldn't remember the name. I've already come from 175 to 161 from just dieting over the last month. Keep in mind I've fought in mma at 145 and regularly did NAGA at 149 but both of those had day before weigh-ins so I know how to loose weight. This was just a fail safe in case I'm a half pound or so over. I don't feel like throwing on the sweat suit when I get there tomorrow morning but didn't ingest any laxitves so that may be my last resort given a worst case scenario. The only reason I even care is because the classes are 150-159 and 160-180
Kick ass tomorrow, Scott! War Swim team!
ill be there tomorrow.
those weight classes are jacked though.
