Started potty training today - need moral support

Hi
I have started toilet training my 25 month old daughter (first child) today.
She has gone into big girl Fifi Flowertot pants and has done well with sitting on the potty and pulling pants down but nothing in it today yet and one puddle and one poo in pants so far. She seems to have an emormous bladder and didn't go for a wee from 8.00 all the way until 11.45. In the past we have had nappies dry until after 2 pm.

On last thursday we bought the potty and she was keen to sit on it and I let her run around with no pants on and she did a wee on it. Today with pants on have had 2 accidents (one 2 minutes after getting up off potty!).
Could it be the pants? Would she be better without them on? She is keen to wear them and after reading the pop up potty book together all morning she seems to have mastered pulling them up and down okay.

I am keen to get her mastering it wearing some sort of pants as she goes to nursery 2 days a week and would need to wear pants there.

I hope I am doing okay.
I decided this week to bite the bullet and have a go as she was keen to wear big girls pants and talks about her potty all the time.
