I have a problem with the following sentence:"It's difficult to play Blanche tipping the scales at one-sixty". That "one-sixty" , is there someone who could tell what does it stand for in terms of measures? Thank you so much.

Hi Anon I'd say "tipping the scales at one-sixty" is a reference to someone who weighs 160 pounds.
