As you get down to below 11%BF or less does every pound of fat lost look like a lot?

Now at 169lbs, lost 6lbs, and it looks like a lot more than that .

Forget my pic it is old. I think I am 183lbs in that pic.

Weird question but folks have told me it looks like a lost a lot of weight. More than the actual.
 
As you get leaner, smaller decreases in bodyfat have a bigger impact on your appearance. Someone who is 20+% body fat will need to lose a significant amount of weight in order for others to notice, but if you are in the 10-12% range then small changes can make a big difference.

I wouldn't say every pound is noticed, but 6 pounds at 11% bf is a significant loss. I find that I look drastically different between 180 and 190 pounds, especially in my jaw line
 
Thanks. I researched a bit around the Internet and hit some other sites and found that information. This my usual go-to site for information.
 
going from 194 @ 10% to 185 @ 7% was a pretty noticeable thing for me. The first 5 were barely noticeable, but the last 5 is where everything started showing from vmo veins to tricep veins
