Does anyone use body scales and feel these help when the weight scales arent going down when on a diet?

[Firefly45]

Desperately trying to lose weight. Am on a calories deficit and going gym loads. Scales never move! It makes me want to give up.
Someone suggested that if you can see other measures such as body fat/muscle etc that could help with motivation.

Does anyone do this? Is it reliable? Does it help?

Fortunately im tall and big built so I kind of just go bigger everywhere!
Massive boobs and belly but its kind of goes on everywhere and when I lose it it comes off everywhere

I have an hour glass shape...but it is most definitely not hour glass at moment..unless its a huge hour glass!
