To up Wegovy or go back to MJ?

I’m looking for anyone who can share their experiences. Lost 2 stone with MJ, never went above 5 mg as didn’t feel I needed it, didn’t want weight to go any quicker (was on it for about 4 months).
Due to price rise, swapped to Wegovy a month ago. Started at 0.5. Half put half a stone on. Admittedly, habits have not been great, it’s been a very stressful few weeks, so could be remedied. Now very regretful about stopping MJ.
No side effects on either.

Should I:
-up the dose of W? Is 0.5 relatively low and my issue with weight gain is not a surprise?
-give the 0.5 longer to have impact in my system-is there any mileage in it only being 3/4 weeks and still adjusting?
-return back to MJ? But…I believe this requires a time off jabs, and I really really cannot face Xmas with the fear of putting all that weight back on.
Need to place an order this week, so any feedback would be really appreciated. Thanks.

I would give it longer and up your dose. Set yourself a mini target for end of December and then make the decision.
