Scared to weigh in

I am a longtime IBS with C sufferer and I'm currently having a nasty flare up. I should weigh myself either tomorrow or Saturday but I'm thinking about skipping the weigh-in if I don't go to the bathroom first. I really want to track my progress this week but I'm feeling so full and bloated that I know I'm going to hate the results. This causes me so much anxiety that just makes the IBS worse. What does everyone else do? Weigh or not weigh?

    I also have IBS-C and having one hell of a flareup since I went off my PMDD med Fluoxetine. I tried Align for a month but that didn't work so today I am starting Linzess to see if this helps. I know your frustration. I never weigh in when I have a flareup because like you said it will depress me and cause my symptoms to worsen.
