Plateau advice needed

Hi, I’ve been on wegovy since March 16th 2026, did 4 weeks at 0.25 then moved to 4 weeks of 0.5

I went from 100kg to 92kg in those 4 weeks of 0.5, I then went up to the 1mg and absolutely hated it, had liquid 💩 for 3 straight weeks and felt my appetite was actually stronger than on 0.5, my weight also only dropped to 90kg in the 4 weeks at 1mg.

I went back down to 0.5 and in the last 4 weeks of that, I’ve only managed to get to 88.5kg and everything feels like the level of effort i was putting in before taking wegovy (and struggling to lose even 1lb for months.)

I really don’t want to go up passed 0.5 and I’m due to start my next 4 weeks of 0.5 today but I’m feeling quite frustrated.

I work out 3 times a week with weights and swim 2-3 times a week too
My avg dailys cals fluctuate between 1200-1700 which at 5ft7 and a BMI of 30 is most definitely a deficit that should be seeing more weight loss.

Would it be helpful to have a break for a few weeks then start again or should I power through?
