Questioncin >> foo; Sometimes it doesn't take... Pin

Embarrassing as this code may be to me (I am a bit of a C++ noob), why don't the third console input take? It acts like I held down the enter key after entering my height in inches.

This sample is part of an exercise from a book.
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

const unsigned char inchesInFoot = 12;
const float metersInInch = 0.0254;
const float poundsInKilogram = 2.2;

int main()
{
  unsigned char userFeet, userInches;
  unsigned short userPounds;

  float userMeters;
  float userKilograms;

  cout << "Enter your height in feet:";
  cin >> userFeet;
  cout << "Now enter the remaining inches of your height:";
  cin >> userInches;
  cout << "How many pounds do you weight?:";

  cin >> userPounds; //blazes right by this

  userInches = userFeet * inchesInFoot + userInches;
  userMeters = userInches * metersInInch;
  userKilograms = userPounds / poundsInKilogram;

  cout << "Your BMI is " << userKilograms / (userMeters * userMeters) << endl;

  return 0;
}
