yeah, you deleted your file system, then created a new empty partition.
instead, you should have used parted(8) or similar to expand the
partition, then used resize2fs(8) to expand the file system on this
partition to its new size.
me, I'd strongly suggest doing a full backup of the partition first with
dump(8)
