No muscle loss??

I have been losing weight pretty steady recently, currently trying to get down to 10% bodyfat before i begin a bulk to fill out a bit. I just found my first trainers sheet where he recorded my bf percents using a 7 point pinch test. Last August i was 216lbs and 33% BF... today i am 162.5 and somewhere inbetween 14-15%. According to the BF in august my LBM was 143lbs, today my lean mass is somewhere around 140-141. Is it possible that i didnt lose hardly any muscle mass over the last 9 months of cutting? I was lifting concistently, but not heavy like i am now. I am kind of shocked that i didnt lose any muscle mass, but at the same time i obviously didnt have much to begin with (143lbs). Is it a good idea to keep cutting down to 10%, till i get rid of my stomach (pray its not loose skin), then begin a slow clean bulk to fill in and gain some LBM? I dont want to bulk now at 14% and just add to the fat i already have... also, if i do have loose skin around my stomach is it even possible to see abs clearly? Im gonna be quite depressed if after all this work i can achieve my ultimate goal of a flat stomach....
