Is it the same scale? Same amount of clothing? Same time of day with the same amount of stuff in your stomach?

I wouldn't worry too much, but I'd probably change the batteries in my scale just to be on the safe side :P

I'm also thinking the removal of part of my stomach played a part

It's not like your stomach weighed 20 pounds ;)

It's possible! I lost 18 pounds my first week! But it slows down eventually, still enjoy it and let it motivate you to keep on track!

Start weight: 252 pounds

High weight: 268 pounds

Perhaps... you were pumped full of fluids for surgery so you could be shedding that along with that fat and a very nice clip!. Be prepared for the 3 week stall... super common.
