What am I doing wrong??

Hello fellow MFP friends!
Ok so I have been doing this for over 3 weeks now. The first week I lost 5 lbs right away. I have gone from being a total couch potato to getting out and walking an hour to an hour and a half everyday. Working in the yard, trying to burn calories any way I can. I have been sticking to the calorie intake that I am supposed to be doing and drinking almost a gallon of water a day. Now I do admit I spend my calories at times on things I probably shouldn't. But does it make a difference as long as I am sticking to my calories?? I just can't lose any more weight. I had this thought that all this walking and moving around was going to get my body going and I'd start dropping the pounds like crazy and its not happening. Anyone else have this problem? I am starting to lose hope and I really don't want to.
Thanks!!!
Mary
