According to snopes dot com, the prohibition against swimming after eating is a myth.

"Whether oxygen-deprivation stomach cramps are real or not is open to debate, as is whether they can be brought on by eating right before engaging in strenuous activity. What's not in doubt, however, are the lack of deaths associated with swimming right after eating - there hasn't been so much as one drowning attributed to this, not even a near drowning. For something that was supposed to be fatal if you so much as dipped a toe, this particular old wives' tale proved to be a dud."
