Gecko isn't eating - please help

Hello. My leopard gecko lost her tail at the end of December and hasn't eaten since then. After she lost her tail, I covered her sand with paper towel so that it wouldn't get into her wound and I thought maybe the change in her environment caused enough stress for her to stop eating. I've since put everything back to normal and tried supplementing her diet with waxworms because she always ate waxworms. She is still having bowel movements so I don't think she's impacted. Her tail is slowly growing back but I'm at my wits end. She still has energy but is getting really thin. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Also, should I force feed her and if so, what's the procedure?
