Lohan Celebrates 7 Booze-less Days

After a year in AA, the actress speaks about her first week without alcohol

Approximately two weeks ago, Lindsay Lohan's publicist and her mother confirmed to 'People' Magazine that she has been going to AA meeting for quite some time, in a bid to shake off the party girl image and get some order back in her life.

Yesterday, the freckled actress, whose behavior had been spiraling out of control in front of the cameras, spoke to 'People' and revealed that she hasn't had one drink in seven days. First, she confessed that going to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings is not just a whim of hers, as it's been more than a year that she's attending them. She explains that she didn't bring that up until now because 'it's no one's business. That why it's anonymous'.

However, in the true spirit of Lindsay's letters, her message on the 'People' official website does strikingly resemble her other two epistles, meaning the one she wrote after filmmaker Altman died and the one she sent to her friends, telling them Al Gore and the Clintons will help her get through her crisis and make the world a better place.

The bright side of all this is that, despite the rambling and sometimes completely off-the-wall language, Lindsay does admit that she quit drinking. As a matter of fact, paparazzi from various news agencies caught up with her this week partying at different clubs, and each time they saw her she had only a bottle of water in her hand.

Here is Lindsay's full post. Enjoy!

'I haven't had a drink in seven days. Or anything. I'm not even legal to, so why would I? I don't drink when I go to clubs. I drink with my friends at home, but there's no need to. I feel better not drinking. It's more fun. I have Red Bull. I didn't feel bad before. I never felt bad.

I just wanted to, like, find a balance. I was out too much. I was too caught up. I mean, I'm 20 years old. I was off from work, I was getting ready to start a film, and I was like going out just to get it out of my system. I was going out too much and I knew that, and I have more to live for than that. I was like, I don't want to be written about at these clubs with these people. I work, I act, I have a living. That's what I do every day. I work every single day.

I think, don't do it for someone else. Do it for you. Because if you do it for someone else you're going to relapse. It's not going to be a change. You have to really do something if you want to do it and if it doesn't work, you're not meant to.'
