Batch: for files greater than, for files less than - windows

Question

I am looking to create a batch script that will take all image files that are larger than x, compress them in one .zip.
Then take all remaining image files that are less than that same x size and compress them in one .zip
I've tried several, several different ways and can't figure it out. I've searched on here and all mighty Google lol
My latest thoughts are listing the files that are larger in a text file temporarily and then using that list for 7zip to compress them, but can't figure out how to echo/print/list them to 7zip.
#ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL EnableDelayedExpansion
for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%a in ('date /t') do (set mydate=%%c-%%a-%%b)
for /f "tokens=1-2 delims=/:" %%a in ("%TIME%") do (set mytime=%%a%%b)
SET FOLDER=%~dp1
REM Sets current directory
SET LOG="log.txt"
pushd %FOLDER%
REM Changes directory to current
for %%a in ("%cd%") do SET NAME=%%~na
REM Gets the last directory name and sets it as a variable
SET ZIPNAME=%NAME% - Originals.zip
SET ZIPNAME2=%NAME% - Photos.zip
if exist ".smaller.txt" del /F ".smaller.txt"
if exist ".larger.txt" del /F ".larger.txt"
if exist "%ZIPNAME%" del /F "%ZIPNAME%" | echo %MYDATE%_%MYTIME%: %COMPUTERNAME% deleted %ZIPNAME%>>%LOG%
if exist "%ZIPNAME2%" del /F "%ZIPNAME2%" | echo %MYDATE%_%MYTIME%: %COMPUTERNAME% deleted %ZIPNAME2%>>%LOG%
REM Deletes old zips if they exists
FOR /F "usebackq delims=;" %%A IN (`dir /b *.jpg *.jpeg *.png *.gif *.bmp`) DO (
IF %%~zA LSS 1048576 (
ECHO %%A >>.smaller.txt
) ELSE (
ECHO %%A >>.larger.txt
)
)
FOR /F "tokens=* delims=" %%x IN (.smaller.txt) DO SET SMALLER=!SMALLER!%%x
FOR /F "tokens=* delims=" %%x IN (.larger.txt) DO SET LARGER=!LARGER!%%x
PAUSE

The forfiles feature has a #fsize attribute, you can check.
For each file, which is large enough, you perform a 7z.exe a (add to archive).
