depends on kind of muscle fibers.

If you been training with low reps and built some real muscle, they would stay. If you engage in cosmetic surgery, they'll disappear.

Do you mean bodybuilding when you say 'cosmetic surgery'?

Muscle atrophy seems to occur after 2 weeks or so.

Shouldn't too severe. After a month it really starts speeding up.

Think of it as deconditioning and you'll be alright.

30-50grams every 2 hours.

anything you lose will be quickly regained. You will probably surprise yourself with your gains when you return. Take a break and dont sweat it. Half the people on this board could use a 10-day break too but are too scared to lose anything to give it a try. rest and grow.
