60 mg/day of Prozac is a very high dose. Prolonged use of SSRIs, especially at high doses, may actually aggrevate the symptoms of anhedonia that you describe. You might benefit from lowering your dose of Prozac.
Conventional wisdom holds that motivation is regulated by dopamine. So augmenting with a dopaminergic antidepressant such as Wellbutrin might be worth considering.
