So glad she's home and she's eating!
(Not so great about the barfing, though.)

I agree with Otto; she's probably gorging herself, especially since she wasn't hungry for so long. I also would feed her in smaller portions spaced out throughout the day until she gets "full" and then work to transition her back to her regular feeding schedule.

How's she doing otherwise? Is she glad to be home?

Good news to report. She has been eating well and walking better so i am going to assume like the vet that she suffered a strain and it's not the spondylosis that showed up on her spine in an x-ray that caused her legs to be weak. On Monday and Tuesday she has had a normally formed stool for the first time in over a week. Things are looking good for my 16 year old girl. She really likes the I/D food which the vet said to give her for a week or so and then give a good high protein food. I wish i could get her to eat canned food but she snubs it. Thank you for your replies and well wishes
