Is it normal to gain and lose muscle so fast?

I gained it quickly from the heavy lifting I did at my job. When my job roles changed I didn't have to lift as heavy stuff and I lost it pretty quick. I'm happy I lost the muscle because I'd rather be a skinny twig, but was this normal?

    I may not know anything about muscle loss but I do know you don’t need muscle to work those fishnets.

    Like how fast? Of course your body will lose muscle if something like that happens.

    Male or female?

    Males its abnormal to lose muscles that quickly from lack of work. With a proper testaterone level muscles should remain at around the same mass.

    Females I dont really know what your hormones go through when lack of heavy lifting is present. Though I assume you keep around the same muscle mass as well.

    Losing muscle is a problem especially if as you described yourself as wanting to be a skinny twig as that would imply your body is eating it's own muscles in order to sustain itself.
