ככותבת. תמרה גסה. והיא פחות מכביצה. ואף ע״ג דכל שעורי אכילה בכזית היינו משום דכתיב בהו אכילה אבל הכא דלא כתיב אלא אשר לא תעונה גמירי דבבציר מככותבת לא מיתבא דעתיה והוי מעונה. ומיהו קיי״ל דחצי שעור אסור מן התורה אלא שאין חייבין כרת ולא לוקין אלא על כשיעור:
כמלא לוגמיו. כל שאילו יסלקנו לצד אחד יהיה אותו הצד בולט ונראה נקרא מלא לוגמיו. ושעור זה באדם בינוני הוא פחות מרביעית:

Bartenura
אינו חייב אלא חטאת אחד – since from one verse, [the prohibition of] eating and drinking is derived and it is considered one thing.
אכל ועשה מלאכה – from two verses it is derived and they are two different things.
אינו חייב אלא חטאת אחד. דמחד קרא נפקי אכילה ושתיה וחד שמא הוא:
אכל ועשה מלאכה. מתרי קראי נפקי ותרי שמות נינהו:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ
What is Mishnah Yomi?

Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

ככותבת – a huge date, which is smaller than an egg. And even though that all measures of eating are like an olive, this is because it is written regarding them as food, but here, as it is not written other than that (Leviticus 23:29): “Indeed, any person who does not practice self-denial [throughout that day shall be cut off from his kin],” we learn that less than like a date [in size], one does not make one come to it (see Talmud Yoma 81a) and it is self-denial. But however, we hold that one half of this measurement is prohibited from the [text of the] Torah but they are not liable for extirpation nor are they flogged other than according to the measure.
כמלא לוגמיו – all that if he had removed it to one side,, that side would protrude and appear, it is called “a mouthful/quantity of liquid filling one cheek” And this measure is with an average person which is less than one-quarter of a LOG.
