Yeah, just make sure you are multiplying the stones by 14 to get pounds like the lady above said. A lot of people think there are only 12 lb in a stone. I suppose we all really ought to go metric and avoid all the confusion :laugh:

Luckily someone invented the metric system to avoid these issues.

You maths must be wrong that is all. Stick to lbs only if that's what you log on here
