Anyone else feel sad getting rid of old, bigger clothes after losing weight?

Some background - I started an earnest push to lose weight about 7 months ago when I just decided I couldn't keep living the way I was at my heaviest. I didn't buy a scale until a few months in, but estimate I was probably at 430lbs wearing men's 4XL/52 waist when I started. Today I'm at 260lbs and finally bought a ton of new clothes since the old were literally just parachutes on me at this point.

In general I'm beyond ecstatic about my weight loss and just earlier today thought that this is the happiest I've been in years. However, when I was packing up a ton of my old clothes tonight to be donated or thrown away - I just started to feel really sad about it. I'm not sure if it's just because I have a tendency to be overly sentimental with things at times or I'm looking at how big these are and can't believe I let myself live that way for so long - probably a bit of both.

This happen to anyone else? It's entirely possible this is just a weird thing of mine.
