Partly why you feel done in after the kind of shake you described (within a short time) is that you need to understand what that kind of food and sugar intake is doing to your insulin production. Insulin production going up and down at dramatic rates may well be responsible for how dramatically hungry you felt just a short while after having your shake. Instead of thinking shakes and finding ways to sweeten up, try picking up a book on understanding the Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load of foods that you eat and watch the times that you intake certain foods. Once you kill the sweet cravings you will find yourself not needing "something to eat" so quickly after intaking a shake.
