Best Answer

The phrase in the title conveys what it says: an inability to rustle up more thanks. However, the connotation depends on context: words, smile/frown, situation, etc.

It could mean that the little appreciation you’ve expressed is all you can summon, or that you’re so filled with gratitude that you feel like you’d float if you were any more thankful.

In your context, you are expressing sincere gratitude with the phrase, especially if the rest of what you communicate says likewise.
