Fellowship counts toward the first cycle. As always, confirm with the ABP for anything specific to yourself. I believe you can start submitting MOC material at any time, including answering questions such as when you were last in a fellowship, but it's been a while since I logged in and looked around.
An ACGME accredited fellowship does satisfy the first 2 year requirement for MOC. It's really easy to submit the info on the website....took less than a minute of my time...and $50.
