Strategically pack your personal item, keeping items you'll need to remove in the security line accessible.
"The TSA suggests packing in layers, which works well. Put things you won't need to touch at security or in-flight at the bottom of your personal item, and pack items you know you'll have to access at the top. These items might include large electronics (laptop, Kindle, iPad), food, liquids, gels, and aerosols."
Yeah, some are only 10kg!
There is no step 2.
Enjoy your flight.
