Some leopard geckos don't eat for 3 or 4 months during the winter. Are you sure the stool is 2 cm. wide? That would be like passing a walnut! Another reason she might not be eating, is she due to lay eggs soon? If her stools are firm then she has eaten something and if they are firm, then she is fine. Just make sure her temps are okay or even raise them if you are still concerned.
