I work with customers and host them for lunch every day - and its all buffet (fattening!) food. How do I avoid temptation when its all around me??

    Eat something healthy before so you're not as hungry. Or, if you have control over it, recommend that some healthier options are provided at these lunches.

    Log everything, I work in a firehouse and their are a lot of good cooks, by logging everything you see exactly what you are eating and how many calories. That alone usually stops me from overeating.

    Love having myfitnesspal.com on my iPhone - means I do log everything at the point it goes in my mouth!

    I would also try drinking a big glass of water (or diet coke because it fills me up) before the lunch. You may be tempted less if you don't feel as hungry :)
    Good luck!
