Ok, I've heard the 6000 calories a day figure, and the "I was hungry all the time" thread, and "I only eat one meal a day, at night" approach. My question is how did your ( thru-hikers ) eating habits change ove the hike? Did it take your body a week or more to realize, "hey! your not putting in enough fuel"? Were you downing large portions the first week out? Will five days worth of food generally be the same throughout the 2000+ miles? I realize everyone body is different, but there must be some commonality here. I thought I rememberedd reading that the first two weeks eating is relatively normal and then the constant eating/munching sets in.
