Is there a problem with me if after i eat something and i walk quickly for aprox. 5mins then they get 'cramps' in the waist area. is it okay?

Normal: When you eat, your body moves blood to the stomach and digestive organs and gives you a little less in your arms and legs. If you are active right after you eat, you are forcing your body to try to chose between keeping blood in the digestive system so it can use the food you ate for energy, or move the blood back to the leg muscles so they can work properly.
