Focus on the prize [Whatever your ultimate goal is: whether it be modeling, your children, etc]
Use sticky notes if you have to [put them everywhere], journals, a diary. Make realistic goals and follow through. If you have to mark your daily goals on a calendar and check them off one by one as you complete them, do that.
And remind yourself that every time you don't follow through you are only cheating yourself out of the good, healthy life that you deserve

The more I visit, the more I'm motivated. The more I'm motivated, the more calories I loose. The more calories I loose, the more I can control my diet. (because i know how much hours of running is required to burn a small pack of fries!)

I find that watching the "fit tv" channel keeps me motivated. When I see them working out, it makes me want to work out. They make it look fun.
More exercise you do and more you will be motivated to do it. The well being that with sport you get automatically increase your motivation
I think that reading online forums and blogs, which discuss the subject of exercise and fitness really helps. It is useful to participate with other members by expressing and sharing ideas.
Once you start to feel the burn of tightness of muscle. When see results that will always keep you motivated knowing that its working

I am such a champ at procrastination. I am well aware that this online thing takes time, effort, and lots of work. Yet for the past couple of days, I have not been able to get motivated to do anything constructive online. Of course, I've had time to post on the forum's 'last post contest' thread...
