Going premium

I am considering going premium on either LoseIt! or MFP. I would likely choose MFP, but I don't believe LoseIt! forces me to autorenew. Is there a way to turn off autorenew after getting MFP premium? Thanks!

    So that's a no? :wink: The only way to stop autorenew is to cancel/delete my account? Seems severe.

    And why charge so much. I love MFP so much i would pay but like a reasonable fee the fee is to high right now. I have protein to buy!!!

    Not complaining so much about the cost, just want to go premium for one year but not necessarily two.

    Yes, once you sign up for premium there will be an option to enable or disable auto-renew under subscription settings. You do not have to delete your account to do so.

    Curious what do you get with premium that you don't get with the free version ...

    Just click on "Premium" and that info will show up. For me, it's worth it for a year (helps nail my Ironman nutrition)

    More specifically, Ironman training nutrition. Customization of days (training/non-training), grams/percentages, exercise integration, easier tracking and customization of carb/prot/fat. And no ads. I'll be using this daily so $4.17/month is worth it to me.

    I just joined MFP and I signed up for premium. My reason was that a free program is too easy for me to give up on and quit ("I don't have to log my food this week. I mean, it's not like it's costing me anything"). I have 155 lbs to lose, and I know that if it's going to hit my wallet, I'm going to take it much much more seriously.
