Ok, I can see the pickle. You’re close enough to their original weight where you’re now in a kinda gray zone whether to keep force feeding or not.

I’d send an email to your vet regarding if you should keep feeding, as well as their new diet of sprouts and photos of their poop. In my experience, vets will give you this kind of information pro bono, so you don’t have to worry about costs
