Sort of making sense. If you get your skates parallel, not too wide apart, and someone gives you a little push, do you glide? If not, what happens? Perhaps you could get someone to gently support you while doing this and you can experiment with feeling your weight over your skates and whether perhaps the toe pick is slightly scratching which would slow you down. Knees over toes, pelvis a bit forward so your butt isn't sticking out, you should feel some pressure from the tongue of the boot on your lower shin at the front, and I would say try not to scrunch your toes up but really feel your weight going down into the ice.
