Power BI Object Model Turning off the Calculation

I am using VBA in Excel and the PowerPivot Object Model to Automate the creation of my DAX Meaures within the PowerBI Model.

 

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vba/excel-vba/articles/about-the-powerpivot-model-object-in-excel

 

The Problem I am Experiencing is that, Every Call to the measure create Method Recalculates the Model , So as the Model Grows the Execution Takes longer and Longer as it Recalculates the Model after every Addition and each time the Recalculate is incrementally longer

 

Is there a way to Disable the Recalculation, so ht all measures can be added with out recalculating the model and then Recalculate the Model Once at the end?
