    One of my kids has an annual team dinner at a buffet. That is a tough one. My goal is to eat things most in their natural state. No creamy, cheesy, gooey. Just the plainest meats and vegetables, especially vegetables!

    we go out to eat pretty often. ive kinda turned it into a game to find better options on menus. i also dont eat any meat other than fish, so i take full advantage of talking with servers about substitutions. when i first started with this site i did an annoying (to my husband) amount of research on restaurants. we havnt tried a buffet yet but it doesnt really seem worth it. is there something at that buffet that youre reeeeally craving? but i can be polite and just go if the family wants to go that bad. id rather lose out on a few bucks and save my waist line than try to get my dollars worth at a buffet.

    I'm low carbing it, so buffets are very doable! Salads with dressing, meats, some soups, veggies, yum!

    I have an aversion to buffets. Usually they emphasize quantity rather than quality.

    I've gone to the Chinese buffet a few times since starting in January. Fortunately the one I go to has an hibachi option, so I get to load my plate with fresh veggies and some protein (chicken or shrimp) and have them cook it in front of me. I always tell them to go light with the sauce because I'm also tracking my sodium intake. Also there is a salad bar with fruit if I want something else. If I pick other food, I try to get the baked, non-breaded items like fish or chicken and also veggies with minimal sauce.
