I know this topic gets beaten into the ground, but now it's me, so I need to ask your opinions. I am 30 years old, female, weigh 130, and exercise frequently.

I drank four mixed drinks slowly throughout the day on Sunday. I drank two beers last night, and finished the last one around 8-8:30pm. Fast forward to today, and I learn I have to take an etg/ets test tomorrow by 9am.

Yes I have been drinking water. I know that EtG is water soluble - other than drinking water (but not too much so it becomes dilute tomorrow morning) are there any foods I can eat or *not* eat that would help/hinder? Does the fact that EtG is non-oxidative mean anything to me at this point?

Do you think I can pass the test tomorrow?

You will be lucky to pass. It will be close but you never know, maybe you will.

Thanks for your quick reply.

We cannot help you cheat a test. You asked if you could pass, I am allowed to tell you that much but I can't (and won't) tell you methods you could use to cheat a test nor will I encourage it.

Roger, okay. I hear you, and I agree. Sorry if the question upset anyone. That will not be put into action.

The question does not upset anyone, it is against the rules of this site to assist in illegal activity.

I understand. I signed up, asked a question, and (though I do know better, was just in a hurry) didn't read the rules. I have since gone back, and looked at them.

Might I ask your opinion regarding my initial chances of passing the test?

What are the consequences if you don't?

It would be a first time probation violation after having been on probation for nearly a year (out of two). I don't know precisely what the consequences would be, because I've never invited the court's ire before.

I know there's nothing I can do to change my outcome. I've just been scared for a good part of the day (clearly, that's all my fault as well). If someone had hopeful news I might sleep better tonight. If there's no chance whatsoever, at least I can ready myself.

There is a chance... you could pass... it's tough to say one way or the other because it will be close.

Let me preach for a second... you seem like a fairly nice person overall... don't push the issue and take chances. If you pass this, look at it as a second chance and stay off the alcohol for as long as you need to. Follow the rules and don't take chances. Just do what you need to do and move on.

Good luck.
