@NTruths It is not that simple. People play with figures. I won't take sides, just remember that Brangian's strategy variant is good to depict Russia as "big but weak", while in Russia itself we prefer to think that the losses could more or less be compared to these of the Germans.
I read some things on the topic, and it seems to me the truth is as always in between. We did lose more, but these extra losses came during the disaster in 1941, when the unprepared army was slaughtered en masse. Later on the fight became more even, and we didn't lose more even though we were advancing and the Germans defending.
