Thomas left the industry to study cosmetology, but in May 2007 she announced her return to the adult film industry. She has since then starred in several different films. In addition to her cosmetology studies, Thomas has also attended real estate school and has a pharmacy technician's license. After gaining some weight in the wake of her short departure from the adult film industry, Taryn has launched a comeback, and is documenting it in her own personal blog. She posts various pictures of her weight loss and updates on her life. She is currently at her "goal weight" and starting to shoot new content.
