Hey, I have been doing OMAD since January. I usually eat around noon +-1h depending on meetings.

I faced the same issues and for me what really helped is drinking a lot of Camomille (0.5L) sweetened with sugar alcohols. I guess it does two things. Camomille has some calming effects, especially when warm. This immediately gets my stomach rumblings to stop. Secondly, the sugar alcohols might trick your brain in releasing some dopamine since it has a sweet taste (not sure, that's my theory). This helps me soldier through the adrenaline and hunger spikes.
