I agree, it's just so tempting to stuff your face! But if you can go there and not come out totally overstuffed, good for you, you have much more self-control than I would ever have in a place like that! Personally, I tend to avoid places like this not because of anything related to my diabetes... it's because places like this are notorious for outbreaks. I'm not saying buffet places are dirty - I took part in some inspections of buffet restaurants this week and they all scored very well. It's just that the situation provides more opportunity for spreading disease, so it's a leeeetle bit more risky eating there than at a full service restaurant. If you do choose to eat at these places, it makes no difference whether you're diabetic or not, maybe consider washing your hands after running the buffet line & handling all those spoons/spatulas/tongs. Nobody ever thinks about those as the culprits, they always think of the food!
