What time is your fight? That's important as it will tell us how much time you have to put stuff back in you. I'd recommend a strict diet before hand. You want to be as close to natural weight as possible, because a few hours won't be enough to recover most likely. You definitely don't want to be dehydrated all day.

If you can get to 126 without any effort, you could do 125 with a small amount of effort.

Increase the amount of water you drink per day until 24 hours out, then slow it down.
start eating cleaner now
avoid salt
Increase the amount of Fibre in your diet (table spoon or two of wheatgerm mixed in a tub of yogurt cleans things out well).
Boiled sweet potatoe and fried eggs for comp day breakfast.


Best thing to do is go overly healthy on the diet and find yourself with a bit of space to spare before weighins so you can eat and drink a bit thus you will feel better.
