Struggling saying no to pudding in social situations

I have got a lot better at saying no to pudding or eating less when I am just with my partner. I was doing well losing weight. Then we had several weekends of people coming to stay and my partner loves baking and insists on offering pudding. She always does quite a bit and even when I ask for a small bit it is perhaps bigger than I should have. I feel really weird not having anything when three others are. I was in a video call earlier today and I could see my face has got a bit rounder and sitting here at a table building some Lego I can feel my stomach more and I don't like it. People also keep giving us chocolates and my partner goes through phases of buying sweets, mostly for herself but I struggle with not eating any. I have got better though and I refused the anyof the huge bowl of chocolate during film night on Saturday and had only salted popcorn (normally I have no snack and have got better at saying no to cinema snacks - not something I ever used to do but peer pressure in groups etc).

Weight loss is tiring even though I definitely feel like I have more energy as I lose weight. I also think I need to accept food wastage and just get rid of cake offcuts that my partner leaves for me when she bakes for work. And I wish people would stop just giving me boxes of chocolates, it is a very nice thought but not helpful.
