I got out of the 280s for good on July 12th. I hit the 260's for the first time on September 13th. It only took me 5 weeks to get through the 290s and 5 weeks to get through the 280s so this just felt like forever, even though 10 pounds in two months is still pretty good.
I haven't complained about foot problems in awhile, last year I got really into running for awhile, overdid it and hurt my foot. The diagnosis is sesamoiditis, the ball of my right foot just feels generally sensitive all the time and if I do things that put pressure on that area it can start to hurt fairly significantly. The prescription for it was rest. Well, I did nothing from last November to July... and the pain came back instantly when I started going to the gym. I finally went back to my podiatrist, he added more cushion to the orthotic in my right foot and told me not to do any exercises that hurt for a month. So no running, limited jumping, no lunges or any other exercise that involves getting up on the ball of my foot. That's been going on for 2 1/2 weeks now, but its not helping. It still hurts from just general use. I'm going to wait until the full month is up, but the next step is a cortisone shot to try to get rid of the inflammation. I have a bad feeling this is a problem I'll have forever, since 8 months of laziness (ie rest) and dropping 50 pounds hasn't resolved it.
Anyway, things are going well overall, we'll see what's next for the foot in early October, and we'll see if I can get through the 260's a little quicker.
