* I accept the idea that it is best that I lose weight over a period of time.

Score each item as you answer them. A score of "1" if the answer is true and "0" if the answer is "false".
To get the total, add the scores of all the questions. No one score indicates for sure whether you are ready or not to lose weight. The higher the total score, the more characteristics you have that will contribute to success.
And don't forget to be honest while taking the quiz that reflects the way you really are, and not how you would like to be.
