Finding Wendy

A memoir so raw and funny, you’ll forget it’s about weight.

From the orchestra pit to the bariatric clinic, from Amsterdam canals to Toronto sidewalks, Finding Wendy is the unforgettable, laugh-out-loud, binge-worthy memoir of Wendy Limbertie—a queer, post-op, horn-playing force of nature who proves it’s never too late to rewrite your story.

With her signature blend of grit, grace, and unapologetic humour, Wendy takes us on a wild ride through decades of struggles with obesity, public shame, music, love, and loss. She’s been 450 pounds. She’s been on international stages. She’s been heartbroken, hilarious, hopeful, and utterly human.

This is not a diet book. It’s not a success story with a neat little bow.

It’s messy. It’s real. And it’s radically honest.

Whether she’s dodging cruel comments in a Dutch grocery store, standing tall with the horn section of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, or figuring out how to eat again after weight loss surgery and weight regain, Wendy lays it all bare—with sarcasm, soul, and an open mic.

Perfect for fans of Eat Pray Love, Hunger by Roxane Gay, and anyone who’s ever felt like they take up too much space in a world that tells them to shrink.

You’ll laugh. You’ll cry. You’ll want to call your mother.

But most of all, you’ll discover that finding yourself isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about coming home to the person you were all along.

Surviving Isn’t Enough. I. Want. To. Live.
