I've heard pretty good feedback on Taraxatone by Cytodyne from my customers. You could then use Glycerol on the day of the show to pull the remaining water from beneth the skin into the muscle. Twinlab makes Glycerol Fuel, and EAS used to (not sure if they still do) make individual packets of straight Glycerol that you mix with water and drink. It was marketed under their "Neo Elite" label. Packs sold for under a buck each.

thanks bro...i actually have some glycerol laying around. anyone know how long it takes to kick in.

what is the optimum mg/day for a person in my situation to take of dandelion root. is it the same as recommended on the bottle.

I read an article by Duchaine a few years ago and he talked about giving dandelion root to some of the competitors he was helping prepare for a show. He wouldn't advise dosage but he said it took a surprising amount to produce the desired effect. You have to start it a week out of your show, unlike script dieuretics which start only a few days out. Be sure to get dandelion root and not the leaves.
