Check all of your tank under retiple carpet to see if mealworms are there. D: it's normal for them to consume much as they can. :)

If your leo is more than about 30 grams he or she may not need to eat every day and may not be hungry every day. In that case it's best to feed every 2-3 days. (but check under the carpet first)

Adults usually just don't eat every day, if you give them as much as they want in a feeding. :) Every 2-3 days is pretty typical depending on the feeder insect. My adult leo takes 2-3 superworms, 10-15 medium mealies, or 5-7 large crickets every few days and occasionally "takes a break" for several days running after a big meal.

+1, any leo that eats 10 mealies in one sitting most likely does not have a eating problem. You can expect some to go a week in between meals and then can eat every day the following week or something like that, they know when they are hungry.
