I would just switch immediatey to every 12 hrs do it for your wakeup time and 12 hrs later. Maybe be more generous with how long you leave it out the first week (maybe like 30-45 mins vs 20) but try to get that down.

She will eat to satisfy her hunger first. Anything after that is likely boredom or just something to do. You have to make and enforce that choice for her health
