It looks mostly Planntarfascitis. Overweight can lead to reduction in foot arches which can lead to Planatarfascitis. Do Cold Pack. Weight control will take time but with this kind of pain she wont be able to do walks.

Heel pain can be due to 2 things. 1st is weight induced bony heel spur development which can be diagnosed by an Xray both Ankle lateral. Or it can be a result of raised Uric Acid which can be ascertained by a simple blood test. Weight reduction will go a long way in reducing the symptoms. Cycling and skipping dinner will help. Use slippers at home too and use soft sole footwear outside. Or there is an option of using silicone soles under the socks, which are readily available at the medical stores
