Weight is actually dropping, although I think it's mostly just my metabolism slowing down due to almost no physical activity over the past week and a half. Still, at least I'm not putting anything on during my down time. Ideally, I would think that I shouldn't be racing higher than 150, but I always just let myself eat whatever junk I want in heavy training, so it usually stays pretty stable instead of dropping to where it should. Regarding the hip/glute, it hasn't really been making progress, so I'm seeing the sports MD again today to get an xray. If that doesn't show anything, I'll be back in MN in a few weeks, where my parents' insurance covers all sorts of things that would cost a literal fortune out here on student insurance (good thing I'm not 26 until August, so I have a few more months of coverage!). Just an MRI, which is pretty basic and would be super helpful with diagnosis, would cost me $500 out here, but is completely free in MN, so I'm obviously willing to wait a couple weeks if I don't get all the answers today.
