I am a 25 year old vegetarian living in the US. I used to weigh 110 lbs (5. 3") 2 years ago and now I am at my highest weight in my life: 137 lbs. I am actually frustrated and want to do something to get back to my normal weight. I am ready to do exercise and do moderate deiting but I just need to be directed on the right path which will help me lose weight most efficiently in about 3 months.

Do lots of cardio. Anything that gets your heart rate going. Uphill walking or biking. I lost 30 pounds after I raised the incline on my treadmill.
The best thing would be step arobics. It's like running 7.0 mph without the jarring affect on your joints.

find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.
dont try to lose more than 1-2lbs a week - its not healthy to lose more.
eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)
5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day
8 glasses of water
have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy
have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle
cardio exercise 4-6 times a week for 30-50min, light weight training
dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried - no junk food.

pick up a 5 or 10 pound weight at the gym and visualize that weight coming off holding the weight in your hands helps bring home just how heavy even 5 pounds of extra fat can be

swap out brown rice or quinoa yes even the new super food which both add up to about 220 calories per cup for cauliflower or roasted peppers that are only about 30 calories per cup
