| Hi, I've been browsing these boards for a while but I finally have a reason to post. So I'm a poor ass college student who just got laid off from my job. I had an interview today for this classy hotel job and I was told that I'm going to have to have a drug test. I'm assuming its urine. Anyways, I've been smoking for like the past four years pretty heavily. In the past year or so I smoked many times a day and probably consumed more than a half ounce a week. I recently stopped smoking on April 8th and I have not touched any weed since. Since I stopped smoking I lost some weight, going from about 160 to 145. I'm 6'0 and right now I'm fairly skinny. I've been working out pretty much everyday since I quit, alternating between conditioning such as running/biking and power lifting. I have a pretty high metobolism and I drink a ton of milk/water (actually kool-aid) every day. Now, I know it takes about a month for THC to be cleared form one's system, but I was a very heavy smoker and I'm really worried about this drug test. My question is: Do I have much reason to worry? I mean, I smoked for such a long time and such mass quantity that I'm worried it might not be out of my system yet. The test is probably tomarrow or at least in the next couple days, because they said they would call me. My sister passed a drug test a while ago by drinking vinegar the day of her test. Do I need to resort to this? It's been over 5 weeks, and I'm probably rambling right now, but I'm pretty damn worried because I really want this job. Anyways, thanks for your time and any comments/advice would be much appreciated. |

| I would say based on my experiences you are in pretty good shape to pass the test, I would say you have no reason to worry. I lift weights daily as well and when I quit after smoking as much as you did, I was clean in 19 days, and I weigh a little more than you do (though I have no fat on my body) Vinegar has no evidence of helping to pass a drug test so I would not resort to this. If you are really worried you could zip down to your drugstore today and get a home kit for THC and test yourself, but in all honesty, you should be fine. Cheers |

| Yeah, I don't have any fat either. Since I stopped smoking, without the extra incentive of munchies, I've lost weight. I'm trying to gain some muscle by working out, because I don't feel comfortable being so skinny. I do drink a lot of fluids, but I don't really sweat very much, rather I just have to urinate a lot. Usually it comes out clear, I guess because I'm so hydrated. I guess I'm just a bit paranoid, having never taken a drug test before. |

| nothing wrong with being paranoid dude, as soon as you pass the test you will lose that paranoia feeling and you will be more lax come any future tests. Let us know of the results. And yes, clear urine means you are hydrated, which is why labs usually cannot contest this unless the specific gravity is below 1.003, which only happens if you overload on water. Peace |

| Aww crap! I just read on the erowid vault that it can last up to 12 weeks in your system with habitual use! Oh my god... this is not good... I hope that was the very absolute extreme, because I've only been clean for half that long. |

| Erowid has some very good info and some very outdated info. Please try to confirm anything you read there from a seconf source. Having said that, I do believe it is possable to take up to 90 days under extreem conditions. You must consume large, potient amounts daily over a long period of time, have a very slow metabolsm and a lot of body fat. Although in my own personal experiance on these boards, the most I've seen posted is in the 70 day range. I, myself am 47, 5'6", 156lbs, smoke aprox 1gr of mexican daily and my magic number is around 45-50 days. Hope that helps. N2
