If I am considering bankruptcy, is it ok to still use my cards for basic necessities when I have no money?

Me and my wife after several months of financial hardships have contacted a attorney for possibly going into bankruptcy. We are current on all our bills and always have been. She had to leave her job in January and has not been able to find work since, to try and make up for this I went into a online venture which ended up me being scammed for about ,000 from a credit card I used. We lived off borrowed money and taxes but that is all gone. My question is this, I have no money…I mean no money at all. My refrigerator is broken so we have had to eat out at fast food for the past few weeks. Things are crappy and I need money to get by, however I don’t want to get into trouble for using my cards when I plan on filing for bankruptcy. Is it acceptable to use them for things such as food, clothing, gas etc… I would greatly appreciate any help you can provide. I feel bad enough for being pushed into this but don’t want to get into legal trouble if we do file. I have yet to speak to a attorney and don’t even know if I qualify. So is ok to use the cards for these things? Would be ok to use a credit card to buy a new refrigerator? or to pay to maybe get the old one fixed???? PLEASE HELP!

Thank you so much in advance!
