Is it ok to go over on sodium

There is a lot of good sodium info here: http://sodiumbreakup.heart.org/sodium-411/

That's just general info for the average person. What is right for you is something only you and your doctor can figure out.

Unless you have a medical condition, occasionally going over on sodium isn't going to be a problem. Consistently eating thousands of milligrams over your sodium goal? That would definitely be something to avoid, regardless of your current health.

I go way over practically every day.

Sustained over consumption has previously been linked to increase occurrence of some medical issues, according to outdated ( and currently being revised ) medical recommendations.

At the beginning calories are really it. Weight loss is created by eating less calories than your body burns on average.

The macro nutrients (protein, carbs, fat) are the next important and everything else comes after that, unless of course you have a deficiency in some nutrient (like iron) or have a condition where you need to monitor your sodium intake.
