Mounjaro/Constipation

I've been on MJ since October, but the constipation issue hasn't eased, in fact has got worse - it's been just over a week since my last poo. I'm on 5mg, which is working (albeit slowly, only 1.5st since I started). I have been taking physillium husk tablets, but they don't seem to be doing anything. I rdrimk an average of 2l of a day. Any suggestions?

Eating 2 kiwis a day works very well to keep regular.

I need to take my own advice & will buy some tomorrow.

Second the glass of prune juice. I don’t eat much anyway due to a gastric sleeve and mounjaro on top of that means I just eat very little so I toilet maybe once every week and a half. Rabbit poo central. Unless I have prune juice and then I feel quite normal.
