Making fiber pills

 Making fiber pills with the vitamins.


I get making pills.


I get the ingredients off of the supplements daily dose and what is on the pill bottle ingredients.



I sort of new what was in fiber pills like most this stuff I substitute in my meals like yogurt,  smoothies, just water or other times I've lost weight with store bought fiber pills.  Now I'm just making the pills my self so far 60 pills is huge savings.  I'd have to go back to look what it is but I've got 50 capsules in the glass and I know 180 capsules is about $70 USD dollars  while the sale is going on right now for 30 capsules for six bottles.  So do this enough times and it'll pay for itself.


Or other than savings I can guarantee it's all gluten free.

I like this blend cause it has Chia seed and flax seed powder with psyllium husk.  Instead most fiber pills don't have the vitamins like with Chia seed and flaxseed. These do, and it's not just psyllium husk like metamucil when I do research on it.  I find the blend is way better. So I do what I can is.

Which who would of know I've been taking this for years to help with my weight with medication so I wouldn't balloon 🎈. I guess having health care or athletes in the family we would know what to take.  I'm just putting together something easy so I could take before meals for a meal replacement or an appetite suppressant.

The taste Kim is not for in smoothies, which sucks cause I bought a bunch of smoothy stuff just for it.


I have to agree it doesn't taste the best but when you know it's for your health you feel good just drinking it if even if it taste bad.

Pills is.

This way it's convenient more proficient on use since you can use capsules with a drink of anything to target an appetite urge making it more proficient for  1/2 hour before a meal replacement with a lighter meal or just a snack instead 😉, for myself that is.  I only have to take a couple capsules and drink 16 oz of water 💦 with it.

Also to lower my blood pressure.  I've looked in the jerky diet but this seems to be better for lowering blood pressure or lowering cholesterol.  Than the cost of a jerky diet.

Also this is more affordable, I could add jerky in my diet once a week than never at all for a meal.  And these pill would make it so I'm not hungry later.

Well back at making pills for the month.


I'm hoping I'll get a few months out of it.

Id save lots about half the cost of buying the pills myself to make the pills myself.


Which makes sense....

Double the cost of the material and save on shipping also.



I tried fitting 125 in a cup but haven't finished to do there is only  💯 here in picture above.  But the other cup has 75 which 60 capsules is around $27 USD not on sale and a 240 pills is $60 about on sale with a subscription. But all these are American prices so basically double that here.

And I have hardly gotten through my supplements.

I know I am not packing the pills but this will be ok to start.  If I get a good result over the next few months or the same result I have been over the 8 months of 35 weeks losing 35 lbs.  If in the next 20 weeks I lose 20 more lbs.  I'll buy more.  But then I think I'll be at my ideal weight and could probably stop the fiber pill regiment.

So who knows.

how it'll go. 

But I'm pretty confident in it is.


Even with out the pill packing tool.


While I was on a probiotic (yogurt) and oatmeal diet til May I lost about .5 lbs a week.  This chai seed and flaxseed with psyllium husk I lost about a 1 lbs. Per week.  So a healthy weight to lose and I'm happy with the results.



125 pills in this cup.

About $60 worth of pills to make my own fiber pills.  The pills I bought come packed so I figure the unpacked pills would be digested easier the the packed pills.  So I'm not to worried of a blockage after a glass of water 💦.

Same instruction as what I bought them with.

The female pills come in 0 size but the male pills are in 000 size. So they are easier to swallow. You either take 2-3 for females or 1-2 for males twice a day.  So right now I'm only doing male size pills.  Due to Kim never finished her store bought pills so I never got the capsules.

Just for myself. Supper excited.  I've all ready made what I've spent on it.l, or just about with the bag of capsules and pills tray to load them.  And that means I got 900 more pills to make.  Huge savings.  With out shipping added onto it.

So far with 125 pills that he about 2 pills twice a day and it be about a 4-5 weeks worth.  So another 15 more weeks after til a year worth of changing my diet.

You only need 1oz or 30ml of water for each gram but if a bit worried to get a blockage since it's not mixed in a glass you'd be better off drinking it with 16 oz you'll be more than ok for it to mix what it needs in the stomach And if it's sooner than 1/2 an hour before a meal I'd drink 32 oz of water. Which is my water bottle size excluding the ice in it which would take up quite a bit of the container anyway to drink double.

And not to take near other medications cause the fiber will absorb it Also alcohol or greasy food. So that'll be good. To help lose more weight.

And all gluten free and I'm not trying to sell you anything.  I'm just telling you my success in a change. In smaller meal size with pill expanding formula(similar to a ring on the stomach to eat less you could get the full feeling with vitamin fiber boosters). They work very similar or one meal different than normal with yogurt and oatmeal for breakfast, with less eating out and getting one regular junk food out like pop or chips.


I've all ready taken my first two capsules tonight.

The start of Shenton Creation's

  This 2021 we are starting, A new endeavour.  A project that has been talked about for the new year is Kim and my time crocheting, so wood projects and treats we make for our dog.   Hopefully this is the start of an encouraging way to discover new ways into our friends, family and ourselves in a journey with a project, this will commemorating our first blog together, one I have been asking Kim to start for some time.  Hopefully to have more enthusiasm to keep up with our little knickknacks and novelties. To make trinkets in out time and share these moments of thought together bringing about well-spent time jointly. Next post will be on the afghan that I have been working together and could be done on a solid color or two colors of picking. The suspense of this afghan is squares, with white trim. Here part of it set on a chair. Kim is working on a pink one that I will work on the trim as soon as we have enough squares.    Over the holidays 🎄 🎅 w...
