She's still active like normal but I try not to feed her the normal amount of food since she vomited 2 days ago.

Today I'm not sure if her poop will be back to normal. How long should I wait?
With the right medication, the diarrhea can clear up within 3 to 4 days. But first of all you need to determine whether it is having diarrhea. Like I said its not necessary a cat having soft stools is having diarrhea. It could be the food that is making her poo soft. Like my cats when eating Blackwood kibbles their poo is nicely formed whilst when I feed them can food their poo will become soft and not formed at all. Sometimes overfeeding can also contribute to soft stools.

Bring her to the vet to check if she is having flu. The weather is not so good now and most cats are having flu. Better to get it checked.
