Only to that what we want does not satisfy to the degree that we expect

Hello,
The whole sentence is below.

{We get what we say we want , only to that what we want does not satisfy to the degree that we expect }

In this sentence, if "only to that" means "with the result that".

If anybody could help me to make sense of it, I will be very grateful.

Thank you for your help.
