theres a Dawkins speech where he brings up a similar point. If you think back to a point in your childhood you can remember is so clearly it's as if you were still there. The trick is you weren't there, not one cell of your body now was a part of that body.
Really I think it's in the simplest answer. What we define as the self is a collection of experiences and patterns in the mind. the cells change but, the information is saved so long as nothing interrupts the cycle. When we are born we start recording these experiences and when the mind dies they are lost to the sands of time.
