I agree with Shez - go and face the scales otherwise you might go off the rails again
I agree - face the scales. Every time I have been unable to go to WW, I've thought "I will pull it back next week so there is no gain" but I don't - it just gets worse!
I faced my demons yesterday and I had already accepted I had a significant gain but it has enabled me to draw an official line under it and start afresh.
Good luck anyway - the scales may surprise you!

Thanks ladies, I needed someone to tell me to just go! Well as expected a gain...but shocked as its only 1/2lb! I can get rid of that plus more in a week 
only two slight problems.. Night away with hubby and another couple tomorrow night means a meal out and drinks, then lunch at pizza express with the girls on tues :/ think I'll have steak tomorrow night and avoid starter and dessert.

Well done on going - you must be pleased with a teensy weensy little half pound gain!
Do you know where you are going for your meal? Could you have a sneaky advance peek at the menu so you can think ahead? I almost always go for chicken, fish or veggie and ask for a jacket potato or boiled potatoes instead of chips and then have a liqeur coffee (Calypso/tia maria is my fave) instead of a dessert.
Pizza express may be a bit trickier. Do they do pasta? If yes, consider going F&H and having tomato based pasta (arrabiatta is my personal fave!) with 1-2 teaspoons of parmesan.
Drinks - it has to be spirits and diet mixers (2pp each I think) or, if you are driving, alcohol free lager is a godsend at 1pp per bottle (I think).

Depending on how many courses you are going for, I would choose:
Starter - Soup (don't have butter on your roll). Even better, have no starter.
Main - Chicken - ask for boiled potatoes (they are on option on the "sides" list so I am sure they will oblige) instead of creamy mash OR One of the steaks, depending on how they are cooked, with any sauce on the side and ask for a Jacket Potato or boiled potatoes instead of chips
Dessert - Ice cream or Eton mess. Or ask if they serve mints with their coffee and have a cappuccino with mints instead - just enough to give you a sweet kick.
The menu looks lovely by the way but rather luxurious - I love sea bass and then you see "with risotto", which usually has way too much butter for a healthy diet.
Good luck. x

So arrived at restaurant and menu was different, had chicken breast with a little spiced lentil sauce and a half portion of rice, plus a few chips from some one else's plate. Had a small slice of almond cake for pud with an espresso and a large glass of rosé wine! Gonna count it as 35pp then went out after meal and drank ALOT of gin and full fat tonic as nowhere seemed to have slimline. So spent around 60pp in total yesterday (inc breakfast & lunch). Using 33/49 weeklies! Still worth it and have been for a good walk this morning.
