I think you're possibly working out the pounds incorrectly. I assume that for 16.61/2 you mean 16 stone 6.5 pounds? This is different to 16.6 and a half

0.6 of a stone isn't 6lbs. Confusing, but it's a mistake lots make.

So.
17stone = 238lbs. Plus .5lbs makes 238.5lbs (assuming your 3/5 is approx .5lbs)
16stone = 224lbs. Plus 6.5lbs makes 230.5lbs


So that's 8lbs. But you possibly took the pounds as decimals, instead of pound, which would give 5.6, so I think that's what your done.

Have another go. You need to put in a new weight of 230lbs which is 16st 6.5lbs (ignoring the halves ;))

Well done for the 8lbs loss already! :clap:
