A vibration plate is going to do next to nothing for weight loss. If you like it, use it! But it’s not for weight loss. Either you’re eating too many calories, not moving enough, or both. I know cutting down lower sucks and is miserable, but that’s what is probably going to be necessary, unless you want to burn several hundred calories a day through exercise so you can eat more. For me, eating less has always been easier (but still miserable). Good luck!!

Unfortunately, vibration plates do nothing for weight loss as they don't actually help you burn any calories. If you feel you can't eat less than 1300 but that's not too far from maintenance at your height, you've gotta get in some sort of exercise to give you more calories to work with. I'm 5'3" eating 1200 calories a day without any exercise, which I also find to be not enough... so I do strength training some days, walk 12,000 steps other days, dance Zumba at home other days – something that burns around 200+ calories, which brings me up to 1400 calories per day!

I’ve been using my vibration plate consistently for about 3 weeks now. I’ve lost 4 lbs, haven’t toned anything really but I wonder if it was just water weight I was holding on to?

Add context that might help others — skin type, conditions like PCOS, what you'd tried before. The more specific, the more useful.
