Only by weight. You forgot to factor in volume.

There is no such thing as originality. Don't you know this?

John's answer is correct to some extent.

Also, you can ask "Are the contents of my stomach a part of my body?"

Most would say no, so no, you're 0% nacho at that point in time. Any nachos that have been converted to energy are no longer nachos

Which percent of you are you? You can still be you without your leg, so your leg is not you.

I can still be with half of my brain, albeit with issues. Is that me as well?

I lost myself here.

Ayy, finally something interesting!

Well, you say your leg is not you, because of the following argument (correct me if I'm mistaken):
  1. One could live without a leg.
  2. Therefore, your leg is not part of oneself.
By this logic, only your vital organs are you: "you" could be a lump of skin on the ground and it would technically still be "you". However, most people would not agree with this statement.

We actually had a thread about what defines yourself, which you can find here.

Well that was I nice way to kill the fun.

Actually, since we already covered what defines you, let's do something different . What part of you is you if you are being remote controlled down to the consciousness? Where do you exist now if at all? And let me reiterate, that while some may agree you may be the body, that can be wrong if you consider mind transfer.

Actually actually, where are you when you are unconscious asleep in that case, nevermind the crazy remote controlling?
