Diet is important, but so is exercise. For example, if you lie in bed for only 3 days, your muscles start losing tone. It's best to continue to work out. Only 20 minutes or half an hour/day will keep your muscles in shape.

yes...it's called atrophy.
atrophy
noun
1. a decrease in size of an organ caused by disease or disuse
2. any weakening or degeneration (especially through lack of use)
(and, just in case you didn't know, muscles are part of the organ system)

you definitely lose muscle. it will probably not be that visually noticeable but you will be able to tell when you start working out again

at best, they would be less toned.
and when you started working out again, it would hurt for a few days.
