You must be talking about me lately. I used to take down 2200 a day while needing 2800 from exercise + size. Soon enough I gained so much muscle over the past few months that eating 2000-2200 a day fails to keep me well maintained, muscularly speaking. I tried to work out today after resting for 50 hours... no luck, I felt weak as hell because my muscles needed the extra nourishment to go full steam ahead and get fully recovered even though I take down 240g of protein per day. I guess I need like 2500 cal a day now to keep it up with the muscle anabolism, because otherwise I don't see how I'll continue on lifting. Now I understand this bulking/cutting business. No full steam ahead = no strength gains.
