Ah!,..okay,...yeah, some individual snakes tend to keep to their own little seasonal schedule, no matter what the keeper does. Trying different things as you are thinking of doing can sometimes snap them out of their stubborness sometimes, but no real guarantee.
It's certainly worth a try!, but if it doesn't work, and you want to keep good weight on her for breeding, etc..., you might want to simply brumate her earlier at the cool temps. This will drastically slow the snake's metabolism so it won't loose much weight as opposed to keeping her in warmer temps.
