There's absolutely nothing wrong with you, losing 1.5lbs in two weeks is great. As others have said adding weight training to an exercise regime adds necessary muscles and burns more at rest than no muscles.

Intensity to cardio is also key, just walking at the same speed all the time will have you reach a plateau very quickly and weightloss will slow down or stop.
