Default How do I format a cell to show weight in stones and pounds?

Since a stone is about 14 pounds, enter:
12 5/14

Note only a single space between the integer and the fraction.

I am trying to set up a spreadsheet in Excel to record my weight, but if I
enter, for example, 12:05 to indicate 12 stone 5 pounds, it thinks this is a
time. Any suggestions?
