I have to say, what keeps me motivated are the boards and the daily blogging. I am very honest with myself and w/ the blog, so it is motivating to keep up the success rate. So after day 1, go on the computer and just blog about everything you ate. You'll be so proud of yourself!! Willpower is a muscle that you have to train and let get stronger.

Also, keep busy during your usual "binge" times. Like, for me, it's at night when I get home, so I try to get out of the house, whether it's window shopping or going for a walk around the neighborhood, or even meeting a friend at the park or something. There is a direct relationship btw eating and boredom.

And like everyone has said, the immense guilt that you feel when you overindulge is not worth it. Just stay motivated until you are in ketosis-- then after that, train yourself to think that if you mess up, all that effort has gone to waste and you'll end up gaining weight from all the fat you've just eaten!

Above all, recognize that being healthy is really important and this is, by far, the easiest way to jumpstart you into a healthy new you.
