How to use this stones and pounds converter
Enter stones and pounds on the left to convert to kilograms, or enter kilograms on the right to convert back to stones and pounds. The result updates immediately, so it is useful when filling out forms, checking a fitness app value or translating a UK body-weight measurement into metric units.
You can use whole stones, decimal pounds or decimal kilograms. The converter also updates the page URL with the current value, which makes it easier to reopen or share the same conversion later.
Why the UK still uses stones
In everyday life, people in the UK often describe body weight using stones and pounds. In healthcare, fitness apps and many international contexts, the same value is usually recorded in kilograms. This converter helps switch between the two systems quickly without rounding surprises.
This page is designed for simple conversion only. It does not judge whether a weight is good, bad, healthy or unhealthy.
