I understand your predicament. I have a hard time eating at buffets because I can't handle all the food choices. Having been diagnosed with EDNOS, with Ana tendencies, all the food scares me. I try to eat a small salad, a plate with veggies and meat, and maybe dessert. Even eating that scares me, because afterwards I feel so uncomfortable. I also feel guilty because I am often with my parents who have paid for my dinner, and feel that I need to eat enough to fulfill the amount of the meal. One way to look at it is that if you go to a restaurant and get a 6oz steak meal, it is going to cost as much or more than the buffet and you eat it.
