That sounds fine for a frog of that size. They are big time eaters for sure. I would however try to change it up and give her all the variety you can.

Ignore that statement. Goldfish are one of the absolute worst things you can offer them.

gold fish, meal worms are all bad feeders, IMO.. wax worms arent great either.. a bit fat but as an occasional treat, its alright
if you can get roaches instead of crickets, go for it! its far better
earthworms, pheonix worms, silkworms, are all GREAT treat!
goliathworms, butterworms, guppy feeder, moths... many other type of insects are also good as an occasional treat
the best and easiest way to know if a frog is having enough food, is by monitoring is physical shape... i guess this might not be easy for someone without all that much experience but yeah... your frog looks fine to me! not obese like too many captive frogs, and not thin either!
firemt, please watch what you are saying because some people may take that as a "good" advice, if you are not sure, you should ask
gold fish is probably the worst thing you can give your frog, after cooked ham (yes i ve seen it..; salt overdose on frog is possible)
