Saddle wear on only one side?

I have a Brooks B17 with about 700 miles on it. It's been moderately comfortable all along but I'm noticing that my left sit bone is holding the majority of my weight and the left side of the saddle is obviously more broken in. I'm going to just keep riding for now, but I'm curious if it's my anatomy or if I perhaps should use a narrower saddle. If the saddle is too wide, would it cause me to shift my weight to one side or another? My sit-bones are about 11cm apart. In the past, narrower saddles have always been more comfortable to me. Curious to hear other commuter's thoughts, especially since I know a lot of people here ride with a B17.
