Plantar fascitiis: Could be the diagnosis. I would recommend you try an over the counter orthotic and ice the foot and see how that works out for you. Ball of foot is not the most precise descriptor so a neuroma would be added into the mix but i would recommend the same treatment for you as a starting point.

Plantar fasciitis: Sound like plantar fasciitis. See a podiatrist for treatment to minimize your down time. Congrats on your weight loss, keep it going.
