and what about when you get to a size 8? What happens then?
What's the difference in how happy you'll be at a 10 in all shops as opposed to a size 8?
I'm not trying to be horrible, I genuinely don't understand, sorry.

nah, not at all, I just understand the reasoning behind saying "I want to be more toned", "I would like to be a healthier weight" or, "I'd like to lose a little bit off my thighs" etc as opposed to picking a target that's a dress size. The statements above tend to come from folk who are happy with themselves already in a general sense but want to lose a little off a certain area and will stop when said target is achieved regardless of dress size.
Dress size is just a number. A size 8 on one girl might look brilliant, but awful on another.
