Chrissy Teigen is back on Twitter, a few weeks after she announced her goodbye on the site.

She attributed her leave on March 24 to the social networking site no longer serving a positive role in her life. She announced her return to the site today, saying it feels "TERRIBLE to silence yourself." She missed her "2000" online friends and the random "belly chuckles," adding in another tweet: "I choose to take the bad with the good!"

The model has had her Twitter account since May 2009, but since her return to Twitter, her follower count dropped to 8.9 million (from her 13.7 million followers prior to deletion). That number has quickly been rising as the news of her return spreads.
