Best friend trying undermine my efforts

About me: I started quite large and have lost 101 lbs (Yeah me!).

Now my best friend (who is about the size I am now) keeps saying I should stop and that I look fine.

Everytime we get together she tries to make me feel guilty for refusing foods (eg cookies, muffins, cakes) and keeps telling me I shouldn't deprive myself.

Now, I still have 17lbs more weight to lose before I am in my target weight range! I have explained that I want to get to my goal before I start adding extra foods and treats occasionally.

Last time I saw her I said no thanks twice to her homemade apricot cake. While I carried our coffees to the lounge room, she brought her plate from the kitchen (where some afternoon tea food was put out for her and the 6 chn)- on it she put 2 bits of cake and said "I got one for you too, I only make this when apricots are in season". Then I felt bad to say no, so ate it feeling guilty that I was eating something I would rather not eat.

How other do people handle these type of people?
