If it were true that every single cell you now have since making a certain memory is now different, I think it has to do with the fact that what makes you is the same thing that makes a school of fish, a swarm of bees, etc. you are a hive mind, and be it a matter of cells sharing 99.9999% of all information from time to time OR the fact that you’re not your cells, you are the electrical synapses that dances between them, you can rest assured that if your cells are constantly dying and regenerating you are still going to be YOU.
