...de-conditioning..: 40 y/o male says I had plantar fasciitis a while I suspect not healing because I brisk walk a lot. Can i lose on 1500 calorie diet without exercise? because heel needs to heal. There are gel implants/supports/orthotics to decrease the plantar pressures of walking. A good Podiatrist can also help. Yes diet could help with weight loss depending on one's usual weight/diet. Careful w de-conditioning

Weight lossa: To lose weight cutting back on calories is the best way. Exercise adds to healthy life style and is good overall for us but not necessary to lose weight. Nice cushion in the sole of the shoe will also help.
