This is the 2nd time I've put on weight. The first time I kicked my ass back into gear but this time around I'm having trouble getting motivated. Plus I haven't been able to stay on track well with my diet and I need too. It's like I'm watching myself put on weight and not stopping it. Has anyone got stuck in a rut like this before? I'm really starting to see myself getting softer.

Take one small yet positive step you know you can do consistently.
Example, replace the rice you have at dinner with spinach. This will make it easier to make more changes.
Then create a definite goal, something you can write down in a few words.
Start small and build momentum slowly. Baby steps like in What About Bob?

I don't wait for motivation. I take action and hope my motivation will catch up.
I command my muscles, they respond. Sitting around waiting isn't an option.
Pick something simple and do it. Endorse yourself for the effort. We get better at the things we do repeatedly. Good habits are built over time based on consistency.The most important aspect of weight training; whether for the athlete, bodybuilder, or average person is to better ones health and ability without injury. - Bill Pearl

Motivation is a lot like a stray cat - it comes and goes as it sees fit.
Just don't be an undisciplined lout, get up and do what needs to be done because its something you do, not because its something you want to do. After a while, disciplined behavior becomes habitual behavior, and then you have made it.
Edit: Also like a stray cat - motivation will sometimes urinate on things you like before leaving.
