I like to use my favorite recipe and prepare a dozen or so at a time.

Prepare 12 quart-sized Ziploc bags (I like freezer bags to use over and over) and label them with a permanent marker “add 1-1/2 cups warmed buttermilk and 2 Tbsp. butter.” Use the measurements for the wet ingredients from your favorite bread machine recipe. You may need to adjust the liquid for your bread machine.

I love these simple traveling tips for their simplicity and convenience. Try them yourself on your next trip.

I’ve learned the hard way that no diet will be successful if you’re hungry all the time. Sheer willpower only saves you for so long before you fold, and begin eating everything in sight. For a weight loss plan to be truly successful, it needs to fill you up with healthy food…ones that will curb your hunger and make you feel satisfied. Only then will you lose weight.
