    Macro file has become too heavy

    Ive been learning macros for almost 4 months and have created more than 300 macros, but the problem is whenever i create any macro file the excel file becomes very heavy, even though there is hardly any data in that. With that much amount of data a normal file would be 250kb but where as a macro file with that much data with addition to a couple of macros will be 7Mb, y is that?? is that common or am i the only one facing this problem??
    This has happenned to me in more than 20 files, please help :D
