[pct-l] FOOOOD!

I'll let the (real) thrus answer the bigger resupply how to questions first, but let me ask you this...
 
How much WORK do you want to put into it before you leave? 
 
A few years back I provided half of the dinners for a thru hiker and that was a ton of work and we're not even talking snacks, breakfasts and lunches. I only did the dinners.

Okay SO - I have pretty much all my gear, I've read tons of books, but still I am unsure as to how and where to start planning the logistics of food. I don't understand enough to know whether I will buy all my food along the way, send all my food by mail, or do half and half of both. My main goal is to have enough food, to know when to contact my boyfriend and tell him to send some food, to not be pressured into going into town for a resupply if I don't need one yet or want to push to the next town due to timing. I want to be able to go with the flow, and not constantly be following deadlines (hello that's what hiking is for!). I don't know how to plan for 6 months worth of food. I just have no clue where to begin with this - it is mind boggling for me for some reason. Help! Oh, and I think a crucial piece of information is I am vegetarian, so that limits availability of food I can resupply with in towns making me think I may have to buy more food ahead
 of time. Thanks guys.

Peace, Abbi
