Big question... Is it female?
YES:- As it was a month ago you posted, its probly very obvious by the eggs as to what was wrong! Type "leopard gecko incubation" into Google!
NO:- see a vet quick!

Your gecko could be pregnant but I don't know why that would stop her eating.

I have found that my females usually lose their appetite just before laying. I am not sure why this happens, but make sure their is food available anyway!
