When they say to feed my RES the amount of Pellets that fits in her head, do I do this once a day or more than once a day?

How old your turtle is will determine that. If she's under a year old (or under 4" if you don't know her age), you can feed her that amount once a day. Older, you feed that amount every second day.

If you want, you can break the head sized amount up over the course of one day, but never feed more than the head sized amount.
