I always throw muffins and breads into the cheapest plastic ziploc sandwich bags I can find, and I always keep them stored in the freezer door. The temp in the door is higher than the freezer proper so they seem to do better. I don't wrap them in anything else and I don't have problems with freezer burn. I usually eat everything within a month or so, though. I used to eat nothing but breads and muffins, so I went through this cycle a lot.
To thaw, I either just let them thaw at room temp or in the fridge. If I'm going to microwave them, I take them out of the plastic and wrap them in a paper towel. Microwaving in the baggie makes them soggy and, if you leave it too long, will sometimes fuse the plastic to the bread. Which is bad. Although, maybe Saran Wrap is safe for IBSers' consumption -- it probably doesn't have dairy or MSG, after all.
