I used to go to Woodmarsh Trail often during the pandemic. My goal was to lose weight, and since going to the gym wasn't safe, I decided to go hiking. My average daily walk was 2-4 miles, and I carried a bottle of water, an apple and a cucumber on my morning hikes (3-4 times a week). Cucumbers and apples are good because they quench thirst faster than water. If you want to lose weight by hiking, be sure to bring cucumbers and apples. I have been to the mountains often since I was a child. It's really good for losing weight without harming your health, and we share with you some hacks without the help of people around you.

When I wake up in the morning, I go for a walk on an empty stomach. It burns the fat accumulated in the body. And when I get home, I have breakfast. I'm not hungry because I ate apples and cucumbers. You won't eat much for breakfast.
Mason Neck State Park
2023 Feb 28
I have visited the Mason Neck State Park many times, the most I like among state parks.
This location is a great place for family camping.
Not only for family, but also good for elderly people.
1. The location is not far from Woodbridge, about 50 min drive down to the South.
2. It has camping ground next to the Potomac River.
3. If you like to 👣 . 👍
4. On the way back home, there are local Farmer's markets, and it is good to get very fresh vegetables and fruits.
5. Parking $5.00 / day
6. You can get the parking permit, which is the cheapest parking fee for all VA state parks.
7. I got the parking pass after I had visited, which was a great decision to get a parking pass because every time, I needed to put $5 bill in the envelope.

There are 3 benefits of Walking

1. You can make your body healthy
2. Reduce your stress
3. You can lose your weight

I had lost 10 pounds Lol

For children

walking in the forest is said to be emotionally good for children.
These days Chandran spend a lot of time for using computers (game) and cell phones. In my opinion, they should do some activities. Walking or Hiking with parents in the forests could be a good memory for your children. I recommend you to visit this park at least once if you have not been there. I bat you will love it.
