Question regarding Adderall and drug testing

I have a question regarding a recent drug test and the possibility of coming up positive. For about the past month, I was taking one, (on the rare occasion, two) 15 mg form of generic adderall in order to lose weight and stay awake during early morning hours, as I am in the process of joining the military. I am not prescribed adderall. The last one I took was last Saturday morning at roughly 7am, today is Friday, so roughly 6 days have passed since last taking any. I am constantly exercising, and run at least two miles every day while drinking plenty of fluids. I just had my urine test this morning. Considering the amount of time that has passed since the last adderall was taken and my level of physical activity, what are the odds that the urine test could come out positive?

Thanks for the help! Yea I took it to suppress my appetite and help me run more. I've heard the half-life of adderall is fairly short also, so that's why I quit taking it about a week before I had to go to MEPS. I've since quit taking it completely.

Taking someone elses prescription will only get you in trouble.  I hope this turns out for you.

Please find a more healthy way to lose weight and stay awake.
Taking someone else's prescription or buying drugs off the streets
Is obviously not recommended.
You took the test for your military duty?
Not sure how you would risk the chance of being dirty.
But you should be fine.
