I just keep my focus. Do same things every day. Eat same amounts every
day. Post to alt.support.diet every day. Refuse any food offered by
anyone if it does not fit my plan. Record my honest weight every day.

You're on automatic. Glad it's working so well for you.
I'll look at adding those things in my life.

You may have serious issues with appetite and metabolism etc, as your
weight is way beyond a typical fat person range. Standard advice may
be less than what you need. But trying above all to keep doing exactly
the same things every day help.

What is a serious appetite issue?


You may not genuinely feel the need to lose weight yet and not be
motivated properly.


You may be going on weird fad diets and crash diets instead of
adopting a sensible weight loss programs. Like, now you are suddenly a
lacto ovo vegetarian. Why?

No weird fad diets or crashes.
I've been lacto ovo since 1982.


Do you have diabetes, or pre-diabetes?
Neither


How tall are you and how old?
6'5" 47

There are a few people here (maybe just one) who was, I think, 425 lbs
and went down to 225.

265 is a great goal for me.
I'm big framed and muscular.
