plantar fasciitis

[Tactically Fat]

Right now I am about 270ish. That's been a pretty constant weight +-15 lbs the last 10 years. I attribute mine to 22 years of working on concrete floors, just wear and tear and getting old!

I am not calling anyone obese, but From Health Conditions | Prevention

Plantar fasciitis is common in obese people and in pregnant women, perhaps because their extra body weight overloads the delicate plantar fascia. It is also more common in people with diabetes, although the exact reason for this is unknown.

In my case, my plantar fasciitis was directly correlated with my body weight. And losing weight has all sorts of benefits beyond just alleviating plantar fasciitis.
