How to Fix This MySQL Query So It Works?

UPDATE lessonstatus
INNER JOIN user ON lessonstatus.user_id = user.user_id
SET user_id = (SELECT user_id FROM user WHERE username = 'too_many_accounts')
WHERE last_name = 'stupid'
AND first_name = 'user'
AND username != 'too_many_accounts'
AND lessonstatus.lesson_id NOT IN (SELECT lesson_id FROM lessonstatus WHERE user_id = 1);

Error Code : 1093
You can't specify target table 'lessonstatus_rtab' for update in FROM clause

UPDATE lessonstatus l1
  INNER JOIN user u1 ON (l1.user_id = u1.user_id)
  INNER JOIN user u2 ON (u2.username = 'too_many_accounts')
  LEFT OUTER JOIN lessonstatus l2
    ON (l1.lesson_id = l2.lesson_id AND l2.user_id = 1)
SET l1.user_id = u2.user_id
WHERE u1.last_name = 'stupid' AND u1.first_name = 'user'
  AND u1.username != 'too_many_accounts'
  AND l2.lesson_id IS NULL; -- equivalent to "l NOT IN l2"

UPDATE lessonstatus
SET user_id = (SELECT TOP 1 user_id FROM user WHERE username = 'too_many_accounts')
FROM lessonstatus
    INNER JOIN user ON lessonstatus.user_id = user_rtab.user_id
WHERE last_name = 'stupid'
    AND first_name = 'user'
    AND username != 'too_many_accounts'
    AND lessonstatus.lesson_id NOT IN (
        SELECT lesson_id FROM lessonstatus WHERE user_id = 1
    );
