Lindsay Lohan energised after rehab

Lindsay Lohan is feeling "great" following her recent stint in rehab.

The 'Mean Girls' actress - who completed a three-month court-ordered programme at the Betty Ford rehabilitation clinic in January after breaching the terms of her probation stemming from her 2007 arrest for driving under the influence (DUI) - is determined to get her life back on track now and is putting all her energies into a successful recovery.

She said: "I feel great. I feel happy. There's always bumps we have in the road and as long as I'm focusing on the one thing I know I need to put first in my life, which is my recovery and stuff, then I'm doing good and that's important to me."

The 24-year-old star is keen to start working again but accepts she's got a lot to prove before anyone will want her involved in a movie project again.

In an interview with TV show 'Extra', she said: "I think that's that something I will be able to say when I've taken the steps I need to take to prove that I can be insurable again. I think that will come in time that I will be in the position to say that because I don't think I am right now. 

"I don't think it would be fair to say, 'Oh, this is who I want to work with', and expect that to happen. I have to build my way back up and I get that."

However, there may be a huge obstacle stopping Lindsay's bid to revive her career as she is due in court later this month accused of stealing a $2,500 necklace from upmarket jewellery store Kamofie & Company, in Venice, California.

She has been told she will be going to jail if she accepts a plea bargain for her grand theft felony charge, which she has pleaded not guilty to.
