Boas can breed at that size... but it's not heathy for the female... They really should have been seperated. It is very possible that she is pregnant now.
When was her last shed? Was it a particularly long shed? If it was then it it could have been her POS (post ovulation shed)... from that date you add 105 days and then you have the forecasted drop day for the litter... she could drop before or after but usually if the litter is going to be a good one she'll drop after that date...
As she gets closer to her due date if she is in fact preggy then her front end will begin to get skinny and her back 1/3 will get very swollen... she will exhibit other behaviors too like the heat conversation position which is when she coils herself very tightly in a big mound in an attempt to keep her body temp yup... female also drink frequently when pregnant....

now with all that said... she might just have decided not to feed... boas will sometimes do that... for their own reasons... if she is healthy she shouldn't lose weight for a long while even if she doesn't feed... give her time...
reply with some details on her last shed... and her condition now...
and if at all possible seperate your boas... if she is in fact pregnant her small size will make it potentially dangerous for her and her babies...
best regards!
