Having done rescue and seen a lot of overweight snakes, I reduce frequency. I tend to feed my adult carpets every 2 weeks, so what I would do is move her to a more normal schedule.

You may see increased aggression initially. Think of yourself on a diet is the best way I can describe it. After a few months of normal feeding that issue will settle. It will just take her time to adjust.
