Members exchanged curiosity and humor about vibration plates, with some initially thinking the post referred to a dinner plate that vibrates before realizing it was an exercise machine. Several members shared that they had never heard of vibration plates, while one member reported using one for stage 3 lymphedema and noted it may help build muscle but did not lead to weight loss, and another member shared early promising results with intense leg fatigue after just eight minutes of use. Regarding weight loss surgery, one member candidly shared that their 1997 gastric bypass did not work as hoped and created ongoing complications including an inability to consume enough calories and loss of hunger signals.
