What tends to stick after the appetite meds stop

Newcomers often ask whether the routine is just a side effect of the medication. Here is how this tends to go: the med quiets some noise long enough to build habits, but it does not lift the weights, cook the protein, or enforce a bedtime.

My own version is pretty boring - four lifting days, around 150g protein most days, and a consistent sleep window - and those are the parts that kept rolling when the appetite cue got less loud. The scale is just one noisy input; strength numbers and waist measurement often move on their own schedule.

No shortcut here, just a runway. What is the one habit you would want to survive a med break?
