a question about factoring in bmi and my diet

[BigBoy23]

while im planning my diet and workout

should i include my bmi or only my bmr?

I know i should eat 500 cals below maintenace but does that include workout time?

BMI is not a factor in determining your caloric intake, just your body fat and level of activity outside the gym...
