Mother-in-Law/Devilled Eggs problem

[Guest guest]

OK...without boring you all with my mother-in-law problems...I'll

summarize this up with her favorite saying about just about

anything: " Its not going to hurt you " . Suffice it to say, having

a 6 year old has caused havoc on my marriage as I'm very

protective of my baby.

I digress...the holidays are right around the corner so that means

more family time which means dealing with the MIL on a more

regular basis. When she found out that I was on this diet, she

said " I'll have to make you some devilled eggs...YOU CAN HAVE

THEM! " .

Now, I know we can have devilled eggs and I'm on Day 19 of the

diet so I'm out of Induction even though I'm still keeping my

count low. My question is this: Don't regular Devilled Eggs have

more ingredients that the " low carb ones " do? I hate to go into

her house on Thanksgiving or Christmas Day and say that I need to

know what are in them before eating them and then making her mad.

I figure I'll be safe with the ham and turkey, but she's making

these especially for me. Isn't there usually relish or something

that adds carbs to the " regular kind " ? I want her to know up

front that if they have particular things that are " normal " that I

won't be able to eat them so she won't go to the trouble and be

mad.

Thanks for any advice on this matter. Amazing that I'm already

getting stressed about this...
