    Chances of passing my EtG test after ~60 hours?
    Hello, I'm in a bit of a pickle, and any and all advice would be appreciated. I've already read MANY other similar topics, questions, studies, and articles, and have gotten a good idea of my predicament. But I'd still like to start my own topic.

    I'm a 255 lb. male with an average metabolism. I drank a 6 pack of heavy beer a week ago Saturday, 7 beers the following Sunday (from early afternoon to late evening), and 1 can of 8.1% malt liquor at 1 AM on Tuesday morning. I gave my urine test at 2 PM Thursday afternoon. Assuming it took 2.5 hours for my BAC to go to 0 on Tuesday morning, that leaves 57.5 hours from then to my urine test.

    I took creatine 14 hours before the test and diluted my sample (but not drastically, I only chugged water the night before and the day of). My job is physically intensive and I sweat A LOT during the day. I ate a meal about 11 hours before the test.

    How good are my chances of passing?

    Other notes: The urine hasn't been sent to the lab yet. By the time it gets sent to the lab, 5 or more days will have passed. Could I use this as a legal defense in case the test comes back positive? The test is for probation.

    Probation means no alcohol.

    Oh well that's a shame. Anyone else with knowledge of my question that would like to help me out?

    And yes, I know probation means no drinking. I'm not going to drink anymore until my probation is over, this incident has taught me enough.

    That 5 more days will not get the alcohol out of the urine sample as it is not being utilized by your body, but rather just sitting in a jar. Therefore, you cannot use this as a defense for testing positive.

    I'm sorry you are in this predicament. I hope you've learned your lesson.
