The position of the first letter of their name in the alphabetical series is the amount of weight that they want to lose.
Grace ===> 'G' is the 7th letter in the alphabetical order ====> wants to lose 7 Pounds
Jason ===> 'J' is the 10th letter in the alphabetical order ====> wants to lose 10 Pounds
Paula ===>'P' is the 16th letter in the alphabetical order ====> wants to lose 16 Pounds
Trevor ===> 'T' is the 20th letter in the alphabetical order ====> wants to lose 20 Pounds
Therefore
Lucy ===> 'L' is the 12th letter in the alphabetical order ====> will want to lose 12 Pounds.
