A GRADUATE has shed an impressive six stone after doctors warned a rare brain condition could be linked to her weight.

Size 22 Danielle Puttick once tipped the scales at 18st 3lb - but now she's a slim size 10, weighing 12st 2lb.

The 26-year-old animation designer, from Sunderland, was diagnosed with Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension (IH) in November 2016.

Doctors warned Danielle's size may have contributed to the condition and advised her to lose weight to reverse the effects.

She joined her local Slimming World, at Silksworth Medical Church, a month later.

Danielle said: "My condition left me bedbound for a while but I wouldn't let it beat me.

"I have been big my entire life, but decided I wanted to lose weight when I started my masters degree in design.

"My main motivation was that I wanted a nice photo of myself.

"After I became ill, I was told by doctors that they didnt know what causes the condition.

"But the doctors said that it might have something to to with weight and said I needed to lose some as it could reverse the effects of the condition.

"That was the moment when I thought 'I really have to do this now'. I joined Slimming World as soon as I was able to walk out of the hospital on crutches."

Danielle was studying at Sunderland University when she began to suffer from migraines.

She was referred for an eye test on October 24, 2016, where opticians found blood at the back of her eye.

Medics thought Danielle was suffering from a brain haemorrhage and transferred her to Newcastle's Royal Victoria Infirmary the next day for a CT scan.

There, doctors diagnosed her with IH, a condition which causes raised fluid pressure around the brain.

Danielle had surgery immediately and had a lumbar stent placed in her back, to control the flow of brain fluids.

Official health advice says sustainable weight loss through healthy eating is a critical part of treatment for people with IH who are overweight.

Past studies have shown weight loss can reduce symptoms, but Danielle says this wasn't the case with her.

Although her overall health has improved, Danielle says she still suffers from tiredness and migraines.

Intracranial hypertension: the facts

Intracrainial hypertension (IH) is the build-up of pressure around the brain.

Acute IH can be caused by stroke, injury or a brain abcess.

Chronic IH (which Danielle has) is rare and it's often unclear why it happens.

It mainly affects women in their 20s/30s and has been associated with:

But these are only links, not necessarily causes.

Symptoms include:

She said: "Since my diagnosis, I have found my condition gets bad if I do a long day but I dont believe it has got anything to do with weight.

"When I was doing an internship I found that anxiety and stress were triggers.

"But I had always wanted to lose weight and feel happy that I have finally have. Slimming World is like a family and gave me a life."

After a long hiatus, 'The Biggest Loser' is back with a bang!

The contestants are first weighed in when they enter the show, before splitting them into two teams, this weight serves as the baseline for the rest of the season. The twelve contestants are then divided into two teams- the red team and blue team, to perform various tasks and challenges designed to help them get fit and lose some pounds along the way. Each week the teams are weighed in to see who has lost more weight, and the team with the members who have lost very little weight are put at the risk of elimination. These eliminations go on until the size of the contestants has reduced to a small number when the groups are dissolved and the contestants compete individually for an attractive prize and the coveted 'The Biggest Loser' title.

Following the death of his father when he was a child, Thomas began to overeat as a way of coping with his depression and anxiety. That weight gain continued into early adulthood. "That overeating and stress eating just kept getting worse over the years," he says, sharing his story with Barcroft TV.

"When you're a big guy you don't have many friends," he adds. This led to such low self-esteem that he hated how he looked so much that he avoided mirrors (and all "reflective surfaces in general") and had to "teach himself" how to smile.

"When the doctor told me I was clinically obese, that was the point when it became real," he says. "I wanted to lose the weight, and that was the very beginning of my transformation."

Thomas started off slowly, "just walking and cutting out certain foods, sodas, processed foods," and gradually began to increase his levels of activity. "Once I really started getting going, I actually started enjoying it," he says. "I turned it into a game: every month I wanted to lose more weight."

At his heaviest, Thomas weighed 360 pounds. He has since managed to drop 160 pounds, and in addition to feeling more energetic, he also feels more comfortable with himself. "Workout out gives me more confidence," he says. "After a good workout I always feel a hundred times better, even if I was exhausted before. As I was losing the weight, I started to be able to talk to people better, I started to be able to look people in the eyes when I talked to them before, eye contact was very difficult."

He adds that about six months into his journey, he was able to start looking in the mirror and could stand to see himself in photos.

"I believe I'm in the best state I've ever been in," he says, although he admits there are still down days. He deals with these by telling himself: "Best just to keep on moving and keep on doing what I'm doing, and eventually I'll get to where I want to be... Whatever that looks like on the scale isn't what I care about, being happy is really what's most important."

Quinton Rampage Jackson said he felt like a hippopotamus, after weighing in at a career high 265 lbs and eventually getting knocked out by Fedor Emelienenko at the Bellator Japan event. He has vowed to drop back down to light heavyweight, where he found most of his career success, and now plans to document his weight loss journey.

The former UFC champion took to Instagram about it, calling the loss a wake up call and admitting that his weight really got out of hand. He says he was actually 20 lbs heavier before the fight.

I wasnt impressed with my performance (in my GSP voice) because I have to lose a lot of weight and finish my career strong. Coach Cal from the training lab fixed my medical condition, the only problem was i met him too late, he wrote. I wont fight again until Im walking around weight is at least 230lbs. My goal is to go back to 205. Believe it or not I lost 20lbs for the fight but it wasnt enough because Im not a true heavyweight. I want to make my day one fans proud to ride with me again. it sucks to lose,but this fight was a wake up call.

Defeat is a hard pill to swallow... but its part of the job, Rampage continued on a separate post. Hate letting my people and fans down. Maybe this wont be my last loss but it will be the last time I defeat myself. Im gonna document my weight loss journey. If you feel uncomfortable with your weight do it with me. Tag me in your posts of you working out and eating clean.

Rampage also managed to poke fun of his own situation, and reposted some memes that came out of his fight.

Shahroo Izadi used to weigh 19st and now that shes thinner she says its as if shes gone undercover. The people who dont know that I used to be overweight treat me completely differently. They treat me with respect. Its unsettling. My body might have changed, but Im seeing through the same eyes.
