Is the premium account worth it? I'm really considering it. I have been using MFP off and on for years and I'm ready to buckle down again.

    Which feature makes you want to do this specifically?

    Depends on what your needs are.

    The barcode scanner is a handy thing for many.
    No ads is not a necessity, just more pleasant.

    Do you want/need to track net carbs? Or ignore exercise calories brought over through a synced fitness tracker? There are some other features, I'd suggest just looking them up before deciding.

    I lost my weight using the free version without issues (to be fair, the barcode scanner was still free then).
