Although buffets are a treat for our taste buds, they can be bad for our waistlines. When we are faced with so many delicious foods, it can be hard to make healthy choices. However, by following a few tips, you can enjoy buffets without messing up your diet. For starters, walk around the restaurant before filling your plate. This gives you time to consider your options and make better choices. If possible, try sitting far away from the food. This can help you resist the urge to go back for seconds or thirds.
