It has been shown that by eating food from a small plate, people feel fuller than if they ate the exact same amount of food from a larger plate. With a larger plate, especially at a buffet, we also have the tendency to try to fill every inch of the plate, causing us to eat too much.
So instead of grabbing the largest plate you can and piling on the food, find a normal sized plate, and eat a normal serving size.

Take Small Bites
By taking smaller bites of food, we actually savor the food we eat, enjoying the flavors present. As you begin to actually taste the food you are eating you may notice a change in the foods you desire.
Taking small bites will also lengthen the time it takes to eat and you'll have a lesser tendency to eat too much. As you start to feel full, stop eating, your stomach needs time to process what you already have in it, and overloading it will only cause the excess to be stored as fat.
