I have the power 90 and it is working pretty good. 

My sister has tried the Slim in 6 and said she lost a couple inches in her waist after finishing the program.

I was 190 pounds and 5'2.5" (yeah, the .5 is important when you are 5'2". LOL!)when I started Slim in 6.  I lost 50 pounds in 4 months!  I watched my carb intake pretty closely too... but yeah it worked very well.  I stopped seeing results from Slim in 6 after 4 months.  So I then started Power 90 and got a LOT of tone and went down to 115 pounds!  Whoo hoo!  But then I got really sick over this past winter and couldn't work out and went up to 126 pounds!  UGH!  Back at it again!  You get a LOT more tone from Power 90 but Slim in 6 is very effective at dropping weight.  Hope this helps.... 

Thanks! That is very encouraging! Does Power 90 involve any cardio? Or is it mostly sculpt/strenghth?

Yes Power 90 does have cardio. It is a set of four videos. Cardio 1-2, and Sculpt 1-2. This is the beginning level. You switch off three days of toning and three days of cardio and one day off. After doing Slim in 6, the beginning level was pretty easy so I only did it for a week. Then there is Cardio 3-4, and Sculpt 3-4. There was a big difference between the beginning and advanced level! It was so effective though! I saw stomach muscles actual real visible stomach muscles after two weeks of doing this workout! Never in my life before have SEEN stomach muscles and I just turned 30 and have a three year old and an almost two year old! I LOVE POWER 90! I moved on to the Power 90 Masters Series and it is kind of crazy. I still mix in the Cardio 3-4 and Sculpt 3-4 workouts with the Masters series. A good place to check is on ebay for the videos. You can get really good deals. Or you can get it from beachbody.com.

Like jessiebauer said it has cardio and sculpting.  The cardio is like circuit training so even if at first you do it slowly, you will still work up a really good sweat.  I am only on my 2 week and I already see and feel the results.  I am in a size 12 pant from a 14.  I know it isn't much but it feels like alot to me.

Hope this helps.

Yes, that helps alot. I think once im done with my 6 weeks on Slim in 6 im going to give Power 90 a try.

Is Power 90 a six week program? Does it give you a workout calander

Power 90 is a 90 day program.  You work out for 6 days one day off each week for the three months.  It will give you a calendar to count down with and some info on nutrition.  I finish mine in September.  I really like the program and plan to use it as maintenance after I get to my ideal weight.

I have a goal to get through all of the Power 90 series.  After this one I plan to move to the Power 90 masters series and then to PX90 which is a real bear to tackle. I really like the exercises that the creator Tony Horton gives you in these programs.

As you probably know you can look up all this info on BeachBody.com.  But if you like the program you should look up some of Tony's other stuff as well.

Good Luck.
