You don't have to pay back more than 100% if that's what you're asking. You must factor in Trustee's fees and ultimately the filed claims will control the total amount you must repay.
If you're trying to do a Chapter 13 without an attorney, you should know that based on a study by the bankruptcy courts, there is a less than 1% success rate for debtors filing Chapter 13 without representation.
