anyone else on the depo shot and not losing?

I've been on the depo shot since may, and i have been stuck between 132-138 lbs. Right now i'm stuck at 136 lbs. i recently started running and thought this would help break me out of the 130's. what can i do to break from this plateau? i eat about 1410 calories a day, but i have a feeling my body thinks its in starvation mode and i think that the depo shot is causing me not to lose anymore.
also, i dont eat as healthy as i could, im in the navy and with my schedule its easy to go 4-5 hours without eating and i have no where to keep food cold or to heat it up. i am also ALWAYS exhausted at the end of the work day and i dont know why
so here's my normal workout routine:
tuesdays, wednesdays, and thursday are my command pt days.
tuesdays we usually work out as a group for 30 mins, then run 3 miles outside at our own pace
wednesdays we usually work out as a group for 30 mins, then we have 30 mins to do our own thing, i usually run
thursday we work out as a group for 30 mins then run 3 miles in formation at the slowest runners pace
i just added in running on the weekends on my own and i usually take monday and fridays off since we are not given time to work out.
any advice??
thanks in advance.

How tall are you? I'm pretty short, and 130's sounds wonderful right about now.0
