A mallet is softer than a sledgehammer.
My husband and I both have weight issues. Plus, there are some concepts he just doesn't grasp, such as the fact that he and I have different needs. What is a healthy amount for him could be too much for me. The battle I fight is his tendency to food-push, while thinking he's being polite and considerate. I've gotten him to stop asking me *again* if I'm sure I don't want any whatever, a few minutes later after I've already said no. That's progress.
