You primarily gain and lose weight by what you put in your mouth.
Walking is great. Lifting weights is awesome. Other exercises are great. You will build muscle, improve your overall health etc.
But weight - it’s calories in /calories out.
So many variables here. 1. You are likely gaining muscle. If you’re clothing are fitting better, you’re in the right direction.
2. What is your goal? Weight loss? If so, you may need do more than walking to move the needle. HIT workouts, strength training (build muscle to burn more fat).
3. Age, hormones, sleep, stress, etc. all play a role. If all are stacked against you, or even one, it can make weight loss very difficult. You may need to assess holistically. The good news is that they move in lock step so usually working out improves sleep, reduces stress, etc. and a balance can start to occur. However, if one is skewed very far out of whack it may be hard to adjust without other lifestyle changes or interventions.
10K steps a day is a good start but its’s just one part of healthy living. It won’t make you lose weight but will support other efforts.
You also need to do exercise that’ll raise your heart rate and build muscle and eat a balanced diet. Have you ever tracked calories and macros (fat, protein and carbs)?
Start with an app like MyFitnessPal so you can see progress and set other goals beyond daily steps.
I haven't. It seems intimidating for some weird reason. Any tips?
Lots of different factors could be at play here. Are you exercising aside from just walking? Do you have any idea how many calories you're eating each day? Even if the food you're eating is "healthy", if you're unknowingly going overboard on calories, you won't drop weight.
Losing weight is hard, your body is just wired to defend its weight. Walking is a great exercise, and it will help you lose weight, but it can require a lot of patience. If you get on a steady and consistent walking program and exercise some portion control you will mostly likely lose weight. But it won't be sudden. You need to think in longer measures of time.

Your thyroid function could play a role here - I would have TSH testing done.
