Nothing to worry about on the redness. Mine was too for a few days. My doctor (Dr Jay, Dallas,Texas) said to put neosporin on it to get the redness out incase of infection. Might want to check with your doctor. You are starting at where I was on April 24th, 2008. I am now weighing 185 in less than 3 months. Not bad. I had a problem after my 2nd fill and had to get some taken out. Couldn't eat anything. Doing better now. Good luck.
