Avoid popping in at meal time. And, if you politely say no thanks and add thanks for asking it kind of puts an end to it. I feel the same way in these situations but I always offer first thing when someone comes over. They are just trying to make you comfortable and be a gracious host. If it bothers you too much just stop by the gas station and bring a bottle of water or pop with you. If you are invited for dinner then eat! You will draw more attention not eating than eating.
say your full and not thirstay.
Tell them the REASON you need to decline their offer. Most people will understand.
No, thank-you --should be sufficient
well say i just ate or something i dont no
Just say 'No, I'm fine, but thanks so much for offering.'
just tell them that u might want to eat somewhere else
jUs say that you just ate. or since you feel uncomfortable liying say that you dont feel comfortable eating in other peoples house's
Just tell them, " No but thank you though. I just had a meal/drink just a little while ago." Usually that's what I do and it seems to work.
a simple No Thank You
why don't you want to eat with them? are you a germaphobe?
you will need to get over that really quick.
Just say "OH, that sounds great but i just finished eating" and if that does'nt work then just pretend to faint.
i usually tell people i just had a meal and wish i could... but cant...
i am especially like this around sweets because a lot of people use artificial sweeteners and i stay away from those completely...
good luck in your journey!!! you will get there healthy :)
i know you dont want to lie but i think your going to have too.. how about im getting a physical at 8 in the morning and must fast before hand... that might work once
Say no thanks
Just tell them politely that you made a dish at home and is saving your hunger for that?
I do the same also and they do get mad sometimes but you cant satisfy people all the time :)
Good luck:

You can tell them that you've just eaten (even though you haven't) but that you would love a glass of water. That way the person offering still feels like a good host/hostess, and at the same time you don't ruin your diet and the water will fill your tummy for the time being until you can eat something healthy at home. Good luck!
happen to me all the time my friend i was born in family that thought you not to eat from people. maybe tell them you not really hungry or just ate. or take the drink to go not to hurt ther feeling.
It's the polite thing to do, to offer food and drink to a guest. I've never had ANY problems whatsoever when a guest says no. If you don't want any, just say no thank you. If they insist that you take something, then THEY are being rude. Change the topic of conversation.
No, you should never take something that you don't feel comfortable about receiving . . . Even if it's a shot of "this could be my last performance" and without it you are a "curtain-calls for the final act" performer . . .
I have the same problem, Just say "no thanks I just ate before I came here, maybe next time" that always works for me.
I would make some sort of realistic reason why I couldn't have anything. Like "I just ate and I'm stuffed, but thanks anyways!" or "My Spouse is cooking a really big dinner tonight or else I would." or something of that nature. They shouldn't get mad at you in the first place, but making a beliveable reason might make it better. Good luck!
i kno what you fell like i get like that to bcuz i dont kno what some people put in there food.. tell them that you ate before you came and that you'll take food to go and then when you leave you can throw a way the food..
I don't see how people could get too angry over something like that... Make sure you're not saying stuff like "eew, no." or "I feel ill when you offer me food!" lol, just say, "No, I'm ok just now thanks", or if they get angry just accept some water or something basic - What's the worst that could happen?
Just say, No thank you!
