The exact number of men at this point is unclear, but there were at most 50 since that is the maximum capacity of a single ship. There were at least 23 men, not including Odysseus, because that is how many men go to explore Circe's island.
All of Odysseus' men are eventually killed before he gets to Ithaca.
7 YEARS
Odysseus lost no men on the island of the lotus eaters. He was able to retrieve the 3 men that had succumbed to the lotus' temptation.
Odysseus stayed on Circe's island for one year, which he thought were a few days; Odysseus stayed on Calypso's Island for seven years. After staying with these goddesses he had two more years of trying to return home.
2 men and a runner
