It is a considerable challenge for an indivual to eat an entire human being. Have you considered maybe gradual dismemberment in a surgical environment? Instead of killing you and trying to preserve a great deal of flesh, one could surgically reduce you while your life continues. A considerable amount of you could be detached as long as it is done in a logical manner and appropriate sutures are made to maintain the circulatory system. Your muscle mass could be consumed with minimal waste. In fact, you could even partake of yourself. Obviously, some parts of you are inedible without a great deal of processing and maybe some catsup. Obviously, you large muscle groups would be consumed first. Arms, legs, buttocks are simple enough. Then, muscles from chest, back and stomach. You would lose a lot of weight and you would look sort of sack like. But, having reduced your mass, you will need far less organ structure. You could lose a kidney, most of your intestines and two thirds of you liver. You would only need the capacity of one lung to sustain you.
With careful planning, a two hundred pound man could be reduced to less than fifty pounds and still survive without external life support. Then, with machines taking over the functions of different organs, you could be reduced even more. A machine can replace the function of your kidneys, liver, spleen and even lungs. Your heart could be reduced to two chambers as there isn't that much of you left to maintain. Then things start getting a bit weird. Your ribcage could be greatly reduced and you wouldn't need a mouth, tongue, jaw, sinuses, hearing support, teeth, throat muscles and larnyx. Even parts of your brain could be removed without killing you although you would lose consciousness. With a lot of effort, I bet we could get you down to less than twenty pounds of vegetating but alive mass. Then, we will just stuff you and cook you like a turkey. Is that what you have in mind?????
