Sodium

Hi all,
I am getting a bit discouraged. I find that when I go out to eat I can find healthy foods to eat (calorie, protein, and sugar wise). But every meal I eat out has a TON of sodium. I always go over my sodium intake if I don't prepare every single meal at home and weigh/measure every ingredient. Does this happen to anybody else or is it just me?
I also have a sodium problem when I try to make food at home. I don't add any salt to what I make, but i tend to make a lot of soup. I use low sodium chicken broth but it still seems to push me over. Short of making my own chicken stock (which I can do, but don't particularly want to) , any advice?
