Weighing my meat (Calorie Counting)

I'm currently on a cutting diet and have managed to drop from around 20% - 12% body fat. I'm getting really strict on maintaining my calorie deficit and keeping my protein/carb intake and strong levels.
Question about weighing meat...
Do I weigh chicken breast or lean beef BEFORE or AFTER i cook it? Normally i wouldn't care (as i've kept it consistant during my program) but the more strict i've become with my diet the more accurate i want my intake of calories and protein to be.
For e.g 100g of Chicken breast = about 140 Calories. Should that be based on cooked or uncooked chicken? Theres about a 40g weight difference :S
I'm trying to mix my meals around while maintaining 1800 calories a day.

weigh that
Yes.
Hmmm looks like i'll neeed to re-examine my diet. I'll shift calories around and see what effects it has. Cheers for the input guys.
We're not having food debates here. The question was about calorie charts and raw and cooked meat. If you don't have an answer to that question please don't post in the thread.
