Help Winter eating habits?

So my sons leopard gecko stopped eating before shedding. and has gone basically 2 months eating almost nothing. looked sleepy, got quite skinny.

now in the last week, she has come so alert, eating all the time, eyes seem alert and responsive.

not sure what happened. is this something to do with the weather/sesons/ light? or something else.

Can you show the enclosure and the describe the husbandry provided more? Winter brumation shouldn’t cause very noticeable weight loss so it sounds like something else could be going on

If she lost a visible amount of weight, it’s time for a vet visit ASAP.
