Default How Do I stop automatic style updates for Word 2013

I have a document that has a custom style, but when I opened it, it isn't following the style. Everything should be in Arial, but I'm finding some in Calibri and Times New Roman. I have tried using the following macro:

Sub RemoveAutoUpdate()
Dim s As Style
For Each s In ActiveDocument.Styles
If s.Type = wdStyleTypeParagraph Then
s.AutomaticallyUpdate = False
End If
Next s
End Sub

But when I change everything to the correct fonts and styles, save and exit, I am finding that it goes back to Calibri and Times New Roman when I reopen. Is there a way I can get it to stop updating the style?

Check that your custom style is not based on another style, such as the normal style.
Understanding Styles in Microsoft Word
Look in the Modify Style dialog.
