The link below has a ridiculous amount of synonyms for weight. Who would've thunk it?!?
EDIT: Not to be an axx...but MASS is not the same as weight. Mass does not change, weight changes with the amount of force acting upon a mass...such as gravity. An astronaut's mass does not change when he is on the moon but they only weigh about 1/8 their weight on Earth due to the smaller amount of gravity.

another word for weight would be force. weight is a mass times an acceleration (gravity), which is how you define a force.

Don't use "mass." It doesn't mean the same as weight. "Force" is better.
