Buy large if that's even the right size, and feed her one rat, once every one to two weeks. I have a great big giant 2.5 year old too. You have to go buy how big around they are on empty to select the right sized rat. Mine just moved to XL, and eats once every two weeks. She's 6 feet and wide. She a suriname BCC. She has never been pushed, she's just a real big girl. One prey item no bigger in diameter than she is in diameter when she hasn't eaten. Don't be in a hurry, it isn't healthy for your snake. Don't be persuaded to feed her more because of her behavior, she doesn't need it. Mine starts looking for the rat two days after she eats too, don't let her work you for rats. : ) If you do you'll shorten her life by overfeeding. Good luck.
