MYSQL update with WHERE SELECT subquery error

I have an issue with getting select sub-queries to work on an UPDATE. I'm trying something like the following:

UPDATE foo
   SET bar=bar-1
 WHERE baz=
      (
       SELECT baz
       FROM foo
       WHERE fooID='1'
      )

Where foo is the table name with primary key fooID. bar and baz are of type INT. When executing this I get the following error:

Error: A query failed. You can't specify target table 'foo' for update 
in FROM clause
