Struggling today?

My friends just posted this on Facebook, and it really hit me hard today.
For the past two months or so, I've stopped eating healthy. Today, I had donuts for breakfast, poptarts for a snack. Cup of Noodles for lunch, and a slushie for a snack. That's what most of my days have been like. I had a few days that were crap, then I just gave up. What was the point? I could only eat well for half of the day, then everything went to H*ll after 3 pm.
Then my friend posted this, and it showed up on my news feed. It hit me like a brick wall.
"You may not be winning, but if you are still fighting, you haven't lost."
Sometimes it may feel like an impossible task. Maybe you're like me, someone who does well the first half of the day then struggles the second half. DON'T GIVE UP. Trying is better than doing nothing at all.
So... there's my cheesy post for today.
