I really got into my diet and using MFP, and lost about 7lbs in the last month and a bit, but, after my leaving do at work (cake) a week spent at home eating what my parents eat, and then living on ready meals for a week while I was kind of squatting in someone elses home, I've gained it all back and I'm feeling really down about it.

Any advice on kickstarting myself?

    Rome wasn't built in a day..!!

    Don't beat yourself up about it. Get back on that bike and go again.

    Don't look back and don't blame yourself over and over again.
    Be sure you have lots of delicious healthy things on hand to help with the temptations.
    Just because I ate a huge piece of bread pudding two weeks ago doesn't mean I'm doomed
    to do it every day, or even every week.
    I hope you like fruits, vegetables, and roasted chicken; having those on hand really helps me.

    Get a digital kitchen scale to measure food.

    AS for food, try to not make excuses and try and cook your own food.

    Push your self and everything will become easier.

    whats done is done, no point worryign about it... just know what you would do next time you are in that situation... all you need to lose weight is a calorie deficit.

    get back to weighing, measuring and logging everything, do some regular exercsie and you will lose the weight in no time!
