Sort of...
The problem is that the faster you go the more the Earth and other physical forces try to resist further acceleration so in order to go faster and faster the necessary HP (or consequently necessary weight-loss) is an exponential curve rather than a linear relationship. Thus it's hard to draw exact comparisons.
