Why is it so hard to keep motivated?

What is wrong with me?
I really want to lose weight and I think things are going well and then something happens to kick me off track, it happens all the time and it has just happened again. Not quite the same as normal this time as I was really ill and nearly died but I'm feeling so much better and have still found it hard to get back on the Slimming World plan. I've been feeling better and started to eat again but I haven't been able to stop, in the last 2 weeks I have ate loads, I've been on a real binge. The more I eat, the more I think "oh well get it out of the way today and start a fresh tomorrow" but I never do. When you think about it losing weight is easy, eat less, eat more healthy foods and exersice more, simple right? So why can't I do it, what is wrong with me? It's not like I'm happy at this size, I HATE IT. I have goals to aim for that should keep me motivated - lose weight, fall in love, have kids. It doesn't keep me motivated though because realistically where am I going to meet someone when it's very rare I go on nights out. I know, I know I'm a lost cause ...... and I'm only 28.
