I am cooking chicken breast and I'm wondering if I weigh before or after I cook. I know it'll weigh less after it's cooked

    Yes. Weigh before for meat and most other things.

    Always weigh raw or uncooked unless it specifically says "cooked weight".

    If you're using a cooked entry, weigh it cooked. If the entry is for raw, weigh it raw.
