@Nightmeare Any person who doesn't prep for hiking a long trail ( or even a shorter one) can expect to be overwhelmed at the phys effort needed. Start prep a month or two ahead of hike,walking every other day,progressively incr mileage&wt carried. GOAL to be able to comfortably carry 25# over an 8 hr total ea day for 2 successive days. This will give your body an idea of difficulty. TRY not to dump food, please..it attracts BEARS to HIKER FOOD & thus to HIKERS. Thanks

She is spot-on with her advice, except you probably need 6,000 Cal. of food/day & your (normal) hiker can't carry that wt.; 2#food/day can be sched if planned well=4-5,000 Cal. Psych effect of food deficit:body will "say" to brain,"Get back to the FOOD=civilization, NOW !!!" Bad decision-making can result. ALWAYS have that extra day's worth of food;you may not hike as far/fast as you planned&that food will be needed! LOOK at "extra" items&keep total pack wt at 25#& you should be ok.

First time i was in the mountains i got loads of food...it was so heavy that i had too throw out food :(

Planning more food than you'll need isn't good advice. Food is heavy and unless you want to heft around a heavy pack, just consume less and focus on energy foods. The body can go a LONG LONG time without eating, and going without food for a day or even a week isn't going to hurt you. Any ill effects you feel from it are psychological.
Simple fact: People consume way more food than they need and think they need.
Pack food light, eat light, be smarter than your stomach.

I always carry extra food in my belly. Saves room in the pack.
