A month out
I'm feeling good, I've been walking six blocks a day, eating right, getting all my liquids in, all my protein in as well. Yet why isn't the scale moving? this is highly frustrating.

Your body had gone under some drastic changes over the past couple months, and it needs to figure it out. Also you have probably hit the dredded 3 week stall. Instead of looking at the scale, start looking at other things. The NSVs of life. Things like being able to walk 6 blocks with out as much effort as the day/week before. Are your clothes any bigger? Do you have any less pain? It's not just about the scale, it's about everything.

I'm trying not to focus on the scale but it really is a drag. I am feeling a lot better though

Maybe put your scale away in the closet for a week, do everything you should be doing and check back in a week. Constantly having weight on the brain will cause you stress which is never good.
