John is correct, you're kinda out of luck at the moment.
If lsqcurvefit ever quits (or you kill it, as terrible as that would be) and you muster up the courage to start it on another two computational run, you could try turning on its iterative display or using an OutputFcn.
The iterative display may be too much info for you, although it does report the iteration and function eval counts:

OutputFcns are functions you code which allow you to programmatically check on quantities such as number of iterations and function counts. You can do whatever you like with these quantities, so perhaps you can periodically report the command line or a file??? See here for more info:

Good luck with that fitting.
