Why do I feel like I'm 300ils and breathless?

I'm 40 pounds overweight and I thought I was doing good excercising and losing weight. I excercised almost everyday for a month. I started to feel inches off my waist. The problem is that my pants that were one size stretched with my weight and actually became my original size now. I was upset because I went to buy pants and I was convinced I had lost one or two sizes. That wasn't the case and I got discouraged for almost two weeks. Before I used to eat every 3 hours 6 times a day. I did 3 meals bf, lunch and dinner and 3 times snack. My snacks became bigger and this is where I started to gain weight. I also began not to watch what I ate, Now I have changed my diet again and to 3 meals a day small snacks when I get the craving which is like 1 or sometimes two times a day and sometime none. I have just made sure they are small portions. Anyways I had stopped excercising and today when I started I got tired quick. Before this during the whole month I was going turbo. Is this common when you stop excercising for some weeks to become tired quick. Is it because I'm at the obese level?

I am 6'0" and weighed 305lb.
I'm 81kg... don't know what that is in lb... you do the math... I know it's nearer my goal of 80kg than 305lb :-)
I eat soylent. You can find out about it on the web. For me, it's perfect. I don't like to cook, so I prepare a week's worth of meals at one time. I'm diabetic, so I tailor my soylent to that. I've halved my insulin dose and feel better than in years, plus I got my brain back, although some might question that. :-)
I have a specific amount to eat for a day, and that's it. So my caloric intake is constant. No snacking, either.
My son, the genius, told me about it in March. It's been my main source of nutrition since then.
Hope this helps.

Gaining and losing weight can make you tired. If you eat well and exercise consistently, you will be fine. I lost 45 lbs just by eating the right foods and walking 4 miles/day/5 days a week.
