My mom and I both went walking the same speed and same amount of time, we both logged in the same exercise but I burned less calories!
I want to know if how much you weigh determines the amount of calories you lose doing a certain amount of exercise.

I really appreciate the answers.

    Yes, absolutely. The heavier person will burn more calories per minute of the same activity / same intensity.

    Yes this^ that's why it's also harder when you get closer to your goal (curses).

    too true darnit, but with any luck as you get fitter, you can increase the intensity to make up for it!
