Alright fellas, I lost my voice yesterday because of this Super Bowl party and I need my voice back by Friday because I have a talent show rehearsal (I'm singing Elvis) and then I have the talent show this Saturday.

Yeah I'm not sick, I just lost it by yelling so how long do you think it will take to get it back and what should I do to speed up the process?

Okay lemme see if I can help ya out >_>
Don't try talking or singing or making ANY sound for about 24 hours, and don't whisper at all, because Whispering strains the vocal chords more than talking and possibly more than screaming.
I mostly specialize in Whistle Register pedagogy but I think some tips relating to that may help.
1. Don't use pepper at all, it worsens damaged vocal folds.
2. Don't drink milk neither because it has tiny particles that attach your vocal cords and causes a bit of damage.
3. Avoid using Cold Water, use warm water if you are thirsty. Try Avoiding cold substances.
4. Try a mixture of Honey and Lime, it should help.

make washy tea and mix it with honey , add a little lemon to it , not to mush , and don't drink it really hot , wait a little for it to become warm .Don't drink cold liquid , and don't drink and eat spicy or flavored stuff. don't let your throat to become dry anytime !
eat soft food , warm (not hot) soup is the best.
try to speak as less as you can .
most importantly don't panic , it will come back soon , less than 2 days !! :)
good luck with your performances ! :)

warm drinks and rest, try not to speak at all if you can help it. and when you go to sing try not to push it too far or you will lose your voice again.
