The big problem to worry about now is not tearing the other 3 major ligiments in that knee. I tore my acl, took it easy for a while then a few months later tore it some more just by taking my shoe off at an akward angle. You may keep experiencing this random sharp pain in the knee until the ligiment is completely torn. the good news is an acl replacement is a lot less painful now and recovery time is a lot less now than it was when i had it done.<br><b>References : </b><br> it could very well be your ACL.

That would give the definite answer. Nothing prevents you from eating less in the meantime.<br><b>References : </b><br> Are you getting an MRI of your knee? That would give the definite answer.
