Sounds to me like she's finally decided to let her body "catch up" with all the food she received early on.

My recommendation would be not to handle her at all until she feeds for you again, and wait at least two weeks before offering any food to her again.

Once she starts eating again, get her on a routine of only being fed once every seven days, and remember that smaller meals really are better, and more than enough to sustain healthy growth (and avoid fasts).
Up until her first shed she was getting food about every 4-5 days yeah.. but after her first shed it was once every 7/8 days.. the last 3 feedings she has refused, with 7 days between each one. i have not held her at all, and I even kept a cloth around her tank in an effort to make her feel a bit more secure
