After six weeks of strength and conditioning training twice per week , two twenty minute walks and doing a couch to 5 k 3 times per week?
Will it be possible to see any difference in my body shape?
New to this whole thing.

It took me a lot longer I'm afraid - keep consistent and watch that you don't overcompensate for calories - lifting heavy weights makes the biggest different in body shape in my opinion

Providing you are eating at maintenance, it's possible but the difference is likely to be minimal. Six weeks isn't really long enough to see real change.
Eating in a deficit will considerably speed up the process (assuming the overall goal is fat loss).

Depends completely on a) your start point, weight and condition-wise, and b) what, and how much, you're eating.
