it may not be the smartest way, but I would try this: 

Suppose I have this set of data:

data = {{4.5, 3.9}, {4.7, 5.0}, {5.8, 9.0},
{3.9,4.5}};

First do the fit...

f = Fit[data, {1, x, x\^2, x\^3, x\^4, x\^5}, x];

...and than create a list with all the coeficients but
the first...

a = Table[f[[i, 1]], {i, 2, Length[f]}];

...and than add the first coeficient...

PrependTo[a, f[[1]]]

...to get the result:

{192.253, -62.3631, -4.804, 1.66484, 0.365264,
-0.0606564}

Does it solve your problem?
