As I thought my computer at work wouldn't let me view your pic. She looks good. Just follow the advice every one has given you and she should be just fine. She's nice and plump, don't get to worried just yet. Good luck w/ her and the eggs.

She looks like a very healthy gecko. Females do not eat as much when they are in breeding mode. Also, she is probably stressed from the move. Make sure the temperature in the set up is good, about 85 to 90 in the hot area and 80 in the cool area, a little cooler at night. She should have multiple hide areas, one in the hotter section and one in the cooler section.
Don't keep handling her if you are, give her time to get used to her new surroundings.
Keep a dish of mealworms dusted with calcium in the enclosure, count how many you put in with her so you can tell if she is eating them. Offer her crickets too if that is what you have.
Give her time to adjust and she should do well, she looks great, you have a nice looking gecko.
