I've read somewhere that it takes about 6 weeks for muscle loss to occur as long as your diet and calorie intake stays good. Taking a couple of weeks off to rest after bulking won't hurt. now if you find yourself antsy or worried try just taking a week off and go from there.

The 2-3 weeks is excellent because during that time you can slowly lower your caloric intake and carb intake. IMO, the number one thing you can do wrong when going from bulking to cutting is just drop 1000-2000 calories in a matter of a day or few days....
