Good advice. I would also point out that the TRT is one of the trails that does allow you to re-supply without much trouble. So I might make a couple of optional re-supply packs that I could add in if I started feeling too hungry/tired.

That said, you're a 14-year-old with the metabolic rate of a hummingbird. You can eat all day long and still not gain weight. I don't think it's possible you to take too much food--it's only possible for you to carry too heavy a pack!
