I haven't gone to the doctor yet but....
I know I have chronic tendonitis in my hip, and it is acting up again, but now, so is my knee.
I think it is the IT band, if it is not better by mid week I am calling the DR.
I run, elliptical, and row every day.
And now I can't do any of that for a few days!!
Does anyone know how I can still lose weight while I am down recovering aside from just drastically reducing my calories?
Thanks!

    Take omega 3, it helps with tendonitis. other than that, theres really no way to burn calories without being active :/
    Good luck!

    also, try getting like a baseball or softball, and roll on your thighs. that also helps with the pain. I had a roommate that had tendonitis on his elbows and when he started rolling on his triceps and forearm, it got better

    Thanks, I am super cutting calories tomorrow and hope to maybe do some arm machines at curves and burn a few calories, but, I doubt It will really do anything. a few days off won't kill me as long as I eat right I guess!!
