    I had it for a year. The extra features are well suited to people doing things like alternate day low calories (intermittent fasting), or setting their macro intakes by grams. If you are doing these types of things, the features are really nice but in my experience not necessary to enjoy MFP.

    I like premium because it shows you your protein/fat/carbs breakdown for each meal, and you can set calorie goals per meal.

    All the above plus no ads! I enjoy it. The macros and foods highest in reports are very useful.

    I am enjoying the premium features. I like being able to see the breakdown in the fat, carbs and protein I consume every day.

    Read the features carefully, and decide if they will help you in your goals. There are far too many people who post on here complaining that they bought Premium and it didn't do what they wanted, when MFP never ever said it did that particular thing in the first place.

    Further couple points:

    1. They boast "premium content" for paid subscribers. It's never eventuated. They posted one blog with 5 recipes months and months ago and that was it. Insult to injury - people using the free version can access that blog anyway.
    2. It is the same food and exercise database, same forums, same recipe builder. None of those change, or improve, with Premium.

    I use premium. A lot of the features are oberstated but the Convenience for macro tracking is worth that feature alone for this guy. But buy the year, not by month if you decide it's for you.
