I want to get my official end-of-November weight tomorrow, even though I'm terrified about what the past few days did to my diet (Thanksgiving AND a wedding).

I'm on WW, and I have pre-paid coupons for weekly weigh-ins. I missed last week's weigh in because of being so busy with the holiday and wedding, and I'll owe two coupons ($26 instead of $13, laaaaame) this week.

So, do I weigh in tomorrow, even though it'll be a bad weigh-in? Or do I wait until the end of the week since it'll cost the same and I can give myself a chance to soften the damage?

Weigh in.

The first time I did WW I would avoid weigh-ins and say, oh, I'll just do better next week - then next week would come, and I'd say the same thing, so on and so forth.

So my advice to you is weigh in - if you had a bad week, it'll be kind of a kick in the pants to get you back on track. I would always make excuses to myself oh, I didn't gain THAT much, it'll be fine - but I'd never know.

If you know, then that's a different story.

Who knows, it may be better than you think

I vote do it too. I'm not in WW, but I weigh in on Monday's and tomorrow's going to be rough (thank you, Thanksgiving...). But it's important to me to stay honest with myself - like, if I don't know my exact number, I can pretend that it's lower than it really is and trick myself into thinking I don't have to work as hard. Even if it's higher than you want, it's a good motivational tool for the next week!

I agree with Stellarose in that you should weigh in. Yeah it might be bad, but it might be a maintain also. Never know!

I agree! You should definitely weigh in. It will hold you accountable, and like the others have said, it might not be that bad! You might be pleasantly surprised!

Just another voice saying, "weigh in."

I say weigh in too. I do it after a rough weekend even though I do my weigh ins fridays. But I need to know what the damage is.
Just a personal example - one weekend I gained 3 lbs and I had thought maybe 1. So I worked my butt off that week and friday weigh in I was the same weight as the week before.
If I didn't know how bad that weekend really went I would have been incredibly discouraged with no loss when in reality I lost those 3lbs again which is a good loss.

I would go ahead and weigh in and just not get too upset about the possible gain. I know that by the next weigh in I have usually lost the gain.

Thanks for the advice, everyone!

I did weigh in, and I gained a pound. I'm not even a little bit upset about this, though--after Thanksgiving and a wedding, I'm thrilled that the gain was that small!!!!

A pound isn't bad at all, now you know it was only a pound and can start stratagizing for next weeks weight in. Good luck!!!

Well now you know! I am also glad that you did weigh in because it is always better to know what you are facing, I think that sometimes I allow myself to believe I didnt gain if I dont actually look at the number. That can lead to a long slippery slope.

Yep now you know. I also agree and would be very happy with only gaining a pound
