This website has helped me so much. It has been instrumental in my fitness journey. If for nothing else I would pay just to support MFP. I cannot afford premium at the moment, but if I could I would.
Thats how I look at it as well. My medical bills used to be much more than $50. Apparently my food bill is to0 -

That's a pretty cool reason to have decided to go premium. I can totally understand that thought process! Regarding ads....I too find those annoying so I use ad-block.0 -
I bought it just because i tend to use things I pay for more than free stuff. My copay at the doctor is like $20 so if it saves me a couple trips to the doctor because of weight related stuff I see it as worth it. Plus what is $50 compared to not dying at 50?0

Agree with @20yearsyounger and @srecupid. As for the comments about the current site being buggy, I've been logging in for 130+ days and haven't experienced any problems.

I agree there have been a few issues. Mostly with pushing out new updates that weren't tested properly. I lost my friends feed a few days ago including christmas. Didn't like that at all. However, I was still a able to log and do what I needed to do as well as try out the new restaurant menu feature.0

Ok, I'll bite . What features worked before August 2015 that are no longer working?0

Thank you. I still use it every day but it is clear that they have no interest in making the free website functional.0 -

Do you seriously think that paying $50 is going to make you live longer? Or that if you don't you will kick it by 50? That comment can't be serious0 -
where can I find this restaurant menu I keep reading about?0

Some people are explicitly told by their doctor, "if you don't fix your weight issues, you won't be alive in five years". However, a less extreme example could be making the same statement about, say, a gym membership. Basically you're spending money to improve your health, which in turn is quite likely to help you avoid obesity related ailments and live longer0 -

You are not missing out on much. I checked it out just to see what it was and a lot of the menus were incomplete and/or had inaccurate NI (a lot of the items that I did find were listed as having 0 calories).0 -

^^^ this. Yes, if you are iverweight, there can be really bad consequences. People who pay for an app to track nutrition and weightloss or those that go to the gym are more likely to lose weight that they desperately need to lose in turn making them healthier and enabling them to live longer.0 -

I used to feel like that. But in the last year, it's like the developers run this site like a hobby and not a business and have zero concern for their users (who, while this is free to use are generating them revenue just by being here) and zero concern for improving the site, and in fact have devolved it. Couple that with whatever the heck is going on forum-wise (I've never seen more people warned or banned for speaking the truth or giving actual solid advice in all my time on any forum, ever) and I don't think they deserve any support from me beyond what they get from me not having ad-blocker.0 -

Thanks. The Restaurant menu thing is US only for now, so Christine won't have it even if she's on iOS mobile.
I like the Smart Copy feature.

Some of my UK friends have it.

I decided to try out the premium and love that it does not add my exercise burned calories back into to my daily amount. I use MFP mainly for the macros tracking and figure out my goal off of MFP and then go in and set my macros goals by gram. I don't want this adjusted if I decide to run longer or work out harder on certain days. In my understanding, the premium gives you more control over settings that you cannot adjust with the free version.0

I have premium and I got it for the sole reason that I can now set my goals in grams instead of % and I can set different goals for different days.0
