 Every single day at work on my break a woman tries to give me candy. She knows I don't eat sweets, but she just won't stop. It's starting to bother me. I don't ever want to be cought in a weak moment. I don't want to be extremely rude to her either. Any ideas for getting her to stop?

Have you asked her to stop?

I did but I guess I wasn't firm enough. I will have to try again. I had a long conversation with her about why I don't eat sweets. Two minutes later she tried to give me a cookie.

She wants you to gain weight.  Tell her to stop offering you candy because you are afraid you will find yourself in a weak moment and eat the candy.

Be strong.  Ask her to stop.  Seriously.

I vote Clobber her With A 40-Pound Tuna.

 

or, you know, tell her you're never going to want that spooty ole candy. (But seriously, I want it to be clobbering time! With a slimy fish. I'll picture that for a while and hope it tides me over.)

"Thanks, [PERSON], but I don't eat candy. It's kind of you to offer, but you don't need to do it any more. Thank you!"

Pick a response to give her and then repeat it every single time she offers.  "No thank you, I don't eat sweets."  Stick to that script.  Every. Single. Time.  

Eventually she'll get the hint.
