Note that if the font changes as you press Enter at the end of a paragraph, the reason could be that the style you are using is set to apply a different style (and that style may define a different font). Look at the "Style for following paragraph" setting in the Modify Style dialog box.
Beyond that situation, when the font changes unexpectedly, a default font hasn't been specified properly. How did you change the font initially? Often, changing the font in the Font dialog box (press Ctrl+D if you are running Word for Windows) and then clicking the Set As Default button will be very efficient.
