It's a slippery slope. I work with someone who I'd say was about the same size as Kelly - eventually her knee joints started to suffer and she is currently waiting to have them replaced. Unfortunately, because she cannot exercise, she continues to gain weight and is going to have a gastric band fitted, so that she can lose enough weight to have her knees replaced. I'm not saying this is even remotely a likelihood for Kelly, just demonstrating an example of the long-term effects of being overweight and how serious it can be, mobility-wise.
