Being vegetarian won't help you lose weight. I'm vegetarian, and I'm about 220 lbs.
The ONLY way to lose weight is to take in fewer calories than you burn. That's it. Story finished.
Look at a dish of ice cream. It's probably about 600 calories. You'd have to walk for AN HOUR OR MORE to burn that off. Add a big bag of potato chips, and that's another HOUR OR MORE of exercise to burn that off. If you are snacking all day, your body will break down before you can burn all the calories you've take in, EVEN IF YOU EXERCISE ALL DAY.
The solution is obvious. Either you need to learn about nutrition, especially counting calories and using will power, or you need to get used to your new, permanently fat self. Being vegetarian has nothing to do with that, as rice, potatos, pasta, etc. all have massive calories, and can fatten you up as fast (possibly even faster) than meat.
