I would have liked to try it for a month ($10), but figured I'd then wind up with the annual subscription and would have paid 20% more. I signed-up for a year of MFP Premium, and have to say I really like several things already. 1. Much easier to enter and change calorie goals (I can set my macros by gram, instead of %) and I can set different goals for different days of the week (i.e. workout/cardio days vs. rest days - which I'm trying to force myself to take). 2. New Daily Summary Dashboards (I'm now using one that counts down my 3 main macros (Protein, Fat, Carbs) and Calories. Shows the same online or on my App. 3. Option to not include exercise in my daily goals. This is big because I know my Microsoft Band overestimates (to some degree) calorie burn. 4. No adds in my News Feed or on my Android App. Nice. So far, the flexibility of setting my calories and macros (and varying by day) is worth it all right there. I have turned off including exercise in my goals, then changed my goals to use a TDEE calculation for working out as much as I do. For rest days, I've lowered the goals (even though I think TDEE takes days working out into account). But, I can still see my exercise tracked since I want credit for the work.
