  Ok, am I just too much of a sheltered American here, or what? I
understand she halved her dress size (I hope she wasn't a size 4), but
what the he&* does losing "seven stone" mean???? Is this some kind of
bizarre foreign system of weight measurement? If so, what happened to
the metric system??? What's going on??? I'm so confused...

HELP!!!
