Increase Dosage?

So I’ve been on 0.5 mg for 9 weeks (after decreasing down from 1.7 mg because of side effects) and I’ve only lost max 7 lbs but have gained some due to events and vacation so I’m really only 3 lbs down in that time period. I have more of an appetite but am trying to combat that with diet and exercise. I want to go up to 1 mg at my next refill but I’m so scared of the side effects coming back which for me was severe constipation and occasional vomiting. Since being on 0.5 mg those side effects have disappeared. Has anyone had similar experiences or can share some advice on what to do for my next dose?

Side note: I have lost over 60 lbs since starting Wegovy in September 2025, so it’s worked out for me, but progress has definitely slowed.
