Lasix

Before I get to your question, I would just like to say that I hope you are doing a show, or a photo shoot, and not just doing it to look good at the beach or something, (my opinion).
Anyway, we need to know your water/carb intake before any specifics can be given.
What I do before my shows:
2 gal H2O for 4 days.
On 5th day, (which was day before pre-judging) cut water except for sipping.
8pm, 40mg Injectable Lasix (I do not recommend oral, because they are harder to predict). Within approximately 120 minutes, it has taken most all of the effect it is going to.
I never needed anymore, and I had no problems with cramping doing it this way.
Hope it helps.

What time are you supposed to cut your water? Why only a one day carb-up? I am assuming that prejudging is on Saturday.
In my way of doing things, (and has worked for me everytime), I carb up wed till prejudging (on saturday morning). With water intake as shown above. Water is needed, along with sodium, (although do not add any extra sodium, just what is normally found in your diet) for a proper carb-up.
In your situation though, it is going to be completely different. Shit, start with 10mg and see what happens. Sounds to me like you may show up looking flat. Is this your first show?
