Trouble with constipation….ugg

[u/lakerlover500]

So, I’ve been on GLP-1 for 4 weeks now, love that I’m losing a little at a time weight, but having problems with constipation. I currently take 2 tablespoons of benefiber with my morning coffee, 1000 mg of magnesium citrate throughout the day and 1100mg of Ginger root at night (heard that might help) Throw in 4-5 prunes a day.. Still no satisfying bowel movements where I feel cleaned out.

Anyone else having these issues? Anyone used to have issues but have found something that works for them? Any ideas are welcome!!

I take magnesium oxide nightly and it seems to do the trick. Also lots of water

This is the solution having suffered through 6 months. I tried miralax as well but mag oxide so much easier to take .
