‘My Strange Addiction’: Ron Has Eaten 2 Couches Worth of Cushions (Exclusive Clip)
“Extra” has an exclusive sneak peek from “My Strange Addiction,” featuring Ron, 35, from California.
Ron is a fan of a very specific sponge filling and reveals in the clip, "I would say in my lifetime, I’ve probably eaten at least a couch and a half to two couches of cushion."
He explained, "I know that it's not healthy. I’ve already had some health problems because of it. They caused a blockage in my lower intestine to where the doctors almost had to go in and cut the part out where the sponge was blocked.”
Ron added, "From that point on, I knew I had to do something to stop myself from getting in that condition and I found a way to do it… Good old fiber.”
He confessed, "I don't like being like this. It feels like I'm doing something wrong to myself and I feel like I've got to hide it from people. And I feel like if I don't hide it from them, I'm going to be judged."
Tune in on Wednesday, Feb. 4, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on TLC.
