I agree with you but sadly the number of people who don't know their body mass in kilograms in the US is in the overwhelming majority. Most states at least teach SI but mine is famous for having an aversion to it which apparently extends into the higher academic professions.

To give them a frame of reference, you could say "I'm 63 kg, so I would take 1.26 grams" (or whatever the numbers are). I suggest you complain to the professor's boss about her. Anyone who does not know his body mass in kilograms (if he knows it at all) or the number of milligrams in a kilogram is seriously behind the times. I was 36 kg sometime in the 70s and I have never known my weight in any other unit. phma
