Perhaps, like us, you're struggling with how to nicely turn down those well-meaning sugar pushers in your life.
It's hard enough to spurn sweets, but you've decided that you're going to say "NO" to sugar and "YES" to a joyous, healthy, sugarfree life. You've opted to treat your body like a precious temple.
Here are seven smart, sassy retorts to defuse the situation when someone shoves a plate of desserts in front of you.
- "There's a full moon out. If I have some of your dessert, I'll turn into a Sugarwolf and start snapping at you."
- "Thanks, but I'm just a dessert voyeur. I like to watch."
- "Dessert? No thanks. I'm the designated driver."
- "I'd love some, but your dessert is just a beast waiting to happen."
- "No thanks. I'm already sweet enough."
- "I better pass. People are still talking about the last time someone fed me sugar. I jumped up on a table, started singing ‘She's a Maniac’ out of key, toppled an antique lamp and hit on my mother's boyfriend."
- "No thanks. As they say, sugar on the lips goes straight to the hips."
Here's my "Say ‘No’ With Sass!" comeback.
