I was 82 kg when i started my weight loss plan, every 2 days i weighed myself to see my weight. When i saw a drop in my weight on the weighing scale...i felt motivated.
Buy a scale and put at home if you don't have one...
You can check my story at the link below:

When you're about to/thinking about eating something naughty, ask yourself rationally "Is losing weight more important that this snack/unhealthy food?" Sometimes that works for me! Also envision yourself fitting into something that you couldn't/cant wear now because its too tight! You know what was my greatest motivator! Losing some weight (even just 5 pounds) I felt so good, that in itself was motivation to keep going!
The other thing is to tell as few ppl as possible, cuz they will inevitably show up with brownies! I swear!!!!
Good Luck!!!

Visualize what you would look like if you didnt reach your goal

Find a picture of yourself... the worst one you can find, and put it on the fridge.
That would deter me.

My motivation is the summer time, i imagine myself looking ripped with a decent six pack, top off. I also check the web for new 1-2 month work-out routines which stops the boredom.
Another motivation for me is that i have a friend and if he looks better than me or can still lift more than me within the time i give myself i.e. a month/2 months id be pissed and wouldn't be able to to ridicule him.
